The code there is quite deliberately adding this in. The issue is around
shared workdir and shared stamps that we had for gcc in particular.
Without this, we used to get stamp mismatches reported for gcc
unpack/fetch/patch tasks.

That said, I think the shared stamps code was a bad idea, we've stopped
using it for gcc now (gcc-source is there instead) and we should
probably remove all remnants of stamp-base from bitbake as it turned out
to be a bad idea.

I'd probably leave fixing this until we do that.

Cheers,

Richard
