Hi Martin,

I've been setting up an auto-builder using Jenkins pulling from that git 
repo, to make my life easier, and it builds successfully...

@see: http://build.dynamicdevices.co.uk:8080/job/meta-mono/40/console

I could be misunderstanding. Are you doing something custom or does the 
vanilla qemux86-64 build fail for you?

Cheers!

Alex
