[poky] eglibc build problem

[Gary Thomas]

I have a distribution which is derived from Poky.  It has been
building great until recently, but now it fails when building
'eglibc' for the target with this error:

$ cat /home/local/p60_latest/tmp/work/armv7a-amltd-linux-gnueabi/eglibc-2.13-r3+svnr14157/temp/log.do_install_locale.13725
cp: cannot stat `/home/local/p60_latest/tmp/work/armv7a-amltd-linux-gnueabi/eglibc-2.13-r3+svnr14157/image/usr/bin/localedef': No such file or directory
ERROR: Function 'do_install_locale' failed (see /home/local/p60_latest/tmp/work/armv7a-amltd-linux-gnueabi/eglibc-2.13-r3+svnr14157/temp/log.do_install_locale.13725 for further 
information)

Looking around in the eglibc build, I can't see localedef being built:
$ find tmp/work/armv7a-amltd-linux-gnueabi/eglibc-2.13-r3+svnr14157/build-arm-amltd-linux-gnueabi/ -name "locale*"
tmp/work/armv7a-amltd-linux-gnueabi/eglibc-2.13-r3+svnr14157/build-arm-amltd-linux-gnueabi/localedata

However, if I build for the BeagleBoard using the same Poky tree,
it does work and I see:

Any ideas what would keep the localedef stuff from being built for my
board whereas it is built for a standard board?

As I said, this has been working great up until some time recently.
I can't see any hint in the commit logs of what might have changed
to break it.  ... that will teach me to take a 2 week holiday!

Thanks
