Confirmed that it is this change. Not sure why but at least we have an
idea of where the isssue is.

I've also sent a patch to insane.bbclass to change WARN_QA such that we
can detect this kind of issue much earlier in people's local builds. It
may expose issues in other layers but those issues probably do need
exposing at this point too...

Cheers,
