I believe the force deploy might be part of the problem.  We do that so in case of dirty builds we always guarantee the kernel and uboot in the images directory (although I hit this with clean builds every time).  On local machine if I only build image I never see the problem, only when I build locally with our build script.

Do you have a link to the full error logs of the issue you're seeing? I
doubt this second commit would cause issues. It only affects the output
of bitbake -e when variable history tracking is enabled.

The first patch fixed several different problems but is is possible you
have a different race issue in your toolchain bootstrap process. Its
hard for me to comment without seeing the errors or knowning which
layers are involved.

Cheers,
