Investigation is complete.

This issue is related to how libzypp constructs a header file in bitbake 
using PACKAGE_EXTRA_ARCHS. In 1.0.1 the PACKAGE_EXTRA_ARCHS was 
cumulative list defined in both crownbay*.conf and tune-atom.inc.  In 
1.1 this was changed to just be set once in the tune-atom.inc.

Because it was a cumulative list, it included x86 twice in 1.0.1 and 
only once and correctly 1.1.

So the fix is in the crownbay BSP, and does not affect the core 1.0.1 
base as we currently have it.  This means no respin or re-test is 
required of the existing bit.

** Is this sufficient information to change to a "GO", pending the 
beagleboard testing at this point? **

Sau!
