That's what I thought, but if I look to see the sstate files that  
exist after building I see:

Which looks to me like it just tried to delete the wrong files.  
Looking in sstate-cache shows that the original files are still present.

This is with a virgin laverne-4.0.1.

I'll give that a try. Thanks.
