Thanks, I did see one there, but it had a date stamp that indicated it was from 
last Friday and a 'last accessed' date for today. This suggest that it came 
from sstate and wasn't generated as a result of the build.

I'm just about at the end of a rebuild after a 'cleanall', so I'll have a new 
image ready shortly. Will have to look at using a local git clone of the kernel 
so I don't have to wait 30+ minutes for the download to complete each time I 
build!
