A missing src directory from a broken kernel recipe resulted only in a warning:
WARNING: copyfile: stat of /home/builder/src/tmp-glibc/work-shared/target/kernel-source/tools/arch failed ([Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/home/builder/src/tmp-glibc/work-shared/target/kernel-source/tools/arch') and the build failed horribly. With this change it's an error which can not be missed: ERROR: perf-1.0-r9 do_configure: Path does not exist: /home/builder/src/tmp-glibc/work-shared/target/kernel-source/tools/arch. Maybe PERF_SRC does not match the kernel version.

This varies between kernel versions.
