I think regardless of how we did this there would be some bumps. It was
on a branch for a week and it was obvious nobody was testing it expect
me. Getting on and doing it and dealing with problems quickly seemed
like the best approach and was what we agreed at OEDEM.

For this specific issue, I've pushed some fixes for meta-toolchain, let
me know if there are any further problems. My test build completed
locally (bitbake meta-toolchain).

Cheers,
