I'm not 100% sure what the issue is. How come you are using a custom 
build script and not the one bundled with OE? I'm not an expert by any 
stretch of the imagination but by not using the given initialisation 
scripts leaves me completely out of ideas as you're running a custom 
setup which I couldn't possibly know the extent of.

All I can really comment on is that Yocto builds fine and consistently 
with Archlinux using the latest packages (I update nearly everyday) so 
the only issue I can see is that your build setup script doesn't cut the 
mustard. Have you tried a completely clean build with only the bare git 
clone and no modifications?
