This actually breaks the builds pretty badly. The fact the image
directory is empty after the above change is a bad sign. The reason is
that it needs to be:

oe_runmake "TMPDIR=${T}" "DESTDIR=${D}" install

If you don't specify DESTDIR, the files in the sysroot disappear and you
get strange errors from recipes like libuser.
