I don't see that this ever got resolved - I still run into it at least 
with release-2012-03.

The issue seems to have cropped up now that sysroot support was added to 
libtool in 2.4 and now the code in autotools.bbclass kicks in that adds 
--with-libtool-sysroot=${STAGING_DIR_HOST} to configur opts in oe_runconf.

Should that be --with-libtool-sysroot=${STAGING_TARGET_DIR} (arch vs 
machine) instead?  I would think that most things are arch dependent but 
that some things would be machine dependent.
