There are two issues there, firstly the scripts/bitbake binary is doing
a really bad job, secondly, one of the improved debugging patches I
added to bitbake, regressed things in this case.

I posted a patch to bitbake last night, I've just posted a fix for
scripts/bitbake now. These two together should improve this. I agree
that particular error would create a poor first impression, thanks for
reporting it.

Cheers,

Richard
