Poky is: BitBake Build Tool Core version 1.20.0, bitbake version 1.20.0
OECore is:  BitBake Build Tool Core version 1.19.1, bitbake version 1.19.1

My bblayers.conf in Poky is:
BBLAYERS ?= " \
  /home/hutch/yocto_master_wcs_10_4_2013/poky/meta \
  /home/hutch/yocto_master_wcs_10_4_2013/poky/meta-yocto \
  /home/hutch/yocto_master_wcs_10_4_2013/poky/meta-yocto-bsp \
  /home/hutch/yocto_master_wcs_10_4_2013/poky/meta-ti \
  /home/hutch/yocto_master_wcs_10_4_2013/layers/meta-oe/meta-oe \
  /home/hutch/yocto_master_wcs_10_4_2013/layers/meta-oe/meta-networking \
  /home/hutch/yocto_master_wcs_10_4_2013/layers/meta-oe/meta-webserver \
  "
BBLAYERS_NON_REMOVABLE ?= " \
  /home/hutch/yocto_master_wcs_10_4_2013/poky/meta \
  /home/hutch/yocto_master_wcs_10_4_2013/poky/meta-yocto \

My bblayers.conf in OECore (that works) is:
BBLAYERS ?= " \
  /home/hutch/oe_core_beagleboard/oe-core/meta \
  /home/hutch/oe_core_beagleboard/oe-core/meta-ti \
  /home/hutch/oe_core_beagleboard/oe-core/meta-openembedded/meta-oe \
  /home/hutch/oe_core_beagleboard/oe-core/meta-openembedded/meta-networking
\
  /home/hutch/oe_core_beagleboard/oe-core/meta-openembedded/meta-webserver \
  "

BBLAYERS_NON_REMOVABLE ?= " \
  /home/hutch/oe_core_beagleboard/oe-core/meta \
  "

I killed the build.  I can't afford to tie up the server that long.  Looks
like I'll have to go back to using Poky for only building my rootfs and
build kernel with poky generated sdk outside of bitbake.  The other problem
I saw was in OECore, I added the linux-libc-headers for 2.6.37.2 so
packages would be built with headers that matched my TI PSP based kernel
and I was able to get that to work.  In Poky, I made the same mods to try
and build everything against 2.6.37.2 headers and no matter what I tried it
would always use 3.10 headers.  Probably OK but I still worry it could
cause a problem.

Will do.  Thanks!
