1) Let's get the file added to the OE source mirror, that will at least stop 
failures for all branches. Tom, could you please add the file from one of the 
above URLs to our source mirror?

2) Longer term the recipe should just be upgraded; last I checked we've fallen 
quite far behind the current version. Javier, if you're relying on Cherokee is 
that something you'd be prepared to do?
