That line is here as well.
I did not do anything special. I was building james-image distro
minimal target sheevaplug
The only odd thing I noticed was that there was some mtd-utils output
in my recipes dir.
Maybe somewhere a build put stuff at the wrong place. Frankly no idea
how that could happen though (and didn't verify file times before I
nuked them.
We'll see if it reoccurs.

PS: was about to press send, then Yuri mentionen a bitbake issue
causing output to end up at the wrong place.
Guess I've been bitten by that and the stamps tell that the package is
build but the exe is not there.
