It dies in process_dir while trying to do os.access I think. my guess
is that you are
passing it host paths like /usr/lib /lib etc which are under root
permissions and can
not be modified by normal user.

You have to debug it. uncomment the

#bb.note("Testing %s for relocatability" % fpath)

in classes/relocatable.bbclass line 28

and check what paths are passed to it when you do

bitbake -b coreutils-native_8.5.bb
