Its similar but not that similar. The toolchain sysroots are special in
that the bootstrap one needs to refer to the non-bootstrap one via
symlinks.

The path references you mention above should be detected by the sstate
relocation code and fixed up automatically. It sounds like the search
and replace expressions we're using aren't catching every reference we
need to which is a different problem.

Cheers,

Richard
