The existing patches seem to fix some workloads and break others. Richard is trying to fix but trying to fix autobuilder issues and other problems and these are slow builds to debug. * Intermittent autobuilder issues continue to occur, about 50% of the open issues are now ptest failures and the rest are various other races or timeouts.

Please see the list at: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/conf/distro/include/main tainers.inc and discuss with the existing maintainer, or ask on the OE-Core mailing list. We will likely move a chunk of these to "Unassigned" soon to help facilitate this.
