The reason you don't see this is because you are building on daisy,
but Chris is building on master. I doubt it it has something to do
with the host distro.
Specifically master enables separate build dir by default in
autotools.bbclass whereas daisy doesn't.

Daisy has these:
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?h=daisy&id=bf33e93f162c9fbba079b4de01c35dcb367c0577
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?h=daisy&id=069de520ec864fc78084e8f1ddfb20edaab55f5e

which enable only the core recipes and then marks the broken ones, but
master has one more:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=69b6eaca3d9b635e8a61a0fdbd814b558e91901d


which breaks other layers with recipes that don't work with B!=S and
they should either get fixed or use autotools-brokensep, so I guess
Chris's patch is the way to go for now...

Cheers,
Stefan
