[yocto] meta-mono core-image-mono failing

[Chris Morgan]

Hello.

I'm trying to build core-image-mono for the bbb. Layers configuration:

Build Configuration:
BB_VERSION        = "1.23.1"
BUILD_SYS         = "x86_64-linux"
NATIVELSBSTRING   = "Fedora-20"
TARGET_SYS        = "arm-poky-linux-gnueabi"
MACHINE           = "beaglebone"
DISTRO            = "poky"
DISTRO_VERSION    = "1.6+snapshot-20140521"
TUNE_FEATURES     = "arm armv7a vfp neon"
TARGET_FPU        = "vfp-neon"
meta              = "master:8293f564685d0f587ab63a107285625dc4f98f1c"
meta-bbb          = "master:8318556523a747b7e9c97326bef14922a154e8a2"
common-bsp        =
"(detachedfrome7dc54e):e7dc54e66f4b5c2982a30bef5c67d734e9c759f5"
meta-yocto
meta-yocto-bsp    = "master:8293f564685d0f587ab63a107285625dc4f98f1c"
meta-mono         = "master:e2d2b8a518403a255822022c9e15f116c91b5dd1"

This is basically master of Poky and meta-mono.

It looks like the issue is due to autogen.sh assuming several files
are located in the current working directory, for instance on lines
102, 129 and 130 of autogen.sh there is no use of the $srcdir variable
before files like configure.in or mono/metadata/Makefile.am.in etc.

Not sure if something has changed on the yocto side to change this
assumption about where autogen.sh is being run from.
