I don't have a fix for this but wanted to document the failure.
As with all the other failures of this type, a -c cleansstate and
rebuild is the workaround.
It feels to me like there are quite a few recipes that don't handle
rebuilds -- I seem to run into a few after every pull.
I've observed the same thing. There seem to be a lot of packages that once
they've been configured, compiled and installed, won't rebuild without being
cleaned in someway.
One suggestion, maybe a new flag for a recipe that says that recipe rebuilds
need to start from a clean patched tree? Then if the do_configure -> do_install
steps have been run, it knows it needs to clean and fetch/unpack/patch before it
tries to rebuild the component... (Maybe sstate-cache can help speed this up in
some way...)
Then over time we can find the items with the flags and attempt to fix them in
other ways...

Agreed, there is a problem here. I've filed the bug:
https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2123
since I think we systematically need to work through these and eradicate
them.
An alternative to fix some of the compile cases would be to run a "make
clean" before the make. I suspect this would annoy people and its a
shame to do that because of a few broken recipes though...
Cheers,
Richard
