I'd just like to add in that while it's great (really, I mean it), 
you're reporting problems, if you can reproduce them in vanilla OE with 
something like MACHINE=qemuarm and DISTRO=angstrom-2008.1 (or 
DISTRO=minimal) or similar, that will help rule out a lot of concern on 
our part and give a testcase we can all easily try out.
