The problem is this commit:

commit bc9d2fbfd4eaad0df5647dd5d07dfb9fcff80ff3
Author: Dongxiao Xu <dongxiao.xu@intel.com>
Date:   Tue Jan 18 16:17:58 2011 +0800

    staging: Use relative path in sysroot-destdir for target recipes

Dongxiao is aware of the problem and working on a fix.  In the meantime,
you could try the fix below from Dongxiao, cut and pasted from IRC, or
back up to the commit before that...

Hope that helps,

Tom
