I'm guessing this is because we haven't tested building meta-toolchain when 
x11 has been removed from DISTRO_FEATURES; at minimum it seems we would need 
to fix the libsdl recipe to be able to build without libx11 when x11 is not in 
DISTRO_FEATURES.

Would you mind filing a bug for this in the Yocto Project bugzilla 
(http://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org)?

Thanks,
Paul
