I've observed the same thing.  There seem to be a lot of packages that once 
they've been configured, compiled and installed, won't rebuild without being 
cleaned in someway.

One suggestion, maybe a new flag for a recipe that says that recipe rebuilds 
need to start from a clean patched tree?  Then if the do_configure -> do_install 
steps have been run, it knows it needs to clean and fetch/unpack/patch before it 
tries to rebuild the component...  (Maybe sstate-cache can help speed this up in 
some way...)

Then over time we can find the items with the flags and attempt to fix them in 
other ways...
