pseudodone exists so that the script does not have to ask bitbake every time 
it is run where to find the pseudo executable (i.e., STAGING_BINDIR_NATIVE). 
Now, at the moment the script is lazy and assumes if the file doesn't exist 
then it needs to build pseudo even if that isn't needed. I have a fix for this 
already, so this problem is taken care of.

If the above is fixed and you can move freely between build directories without 
re-running a setup script, then unless I'm mistaken your immediate problems 
have now been addressed...?

Cheers,
