The move of libcrypto to /lib instead of /usr/lib has broken the _hashlib module compilation. There were also a number of other failing modules which should have been building correctly. This turned out partly to be the /lib issue but also due to a number of native paths creeping into compiler commandlines. These changes add in /lib as part of the searh directory and remove a number of host contamination issues within setup.py. Post release we should really further go through this file and just delete large sections of it as its hard to be sure what strange paths python is injecting as search paths. This patch also fixes issues where re-execution of the compile task would corrupt the Makefile in various ways, again leading to puzzling paths within the configuration.

Poky
Poky is an integration of various components to form a complete prepackaged build system and development environment. It features support for building customised embedded device style images. There are reference demo images featuring a X11/Matchbox/GTK themed UI called Sato. The system supports cross-architecture application development using QEMU emulation and a standalone toolchain and SDK with IDE integration.
Additional information on the specifics of hardware that Poky supports is available in README.hardware. Further hardware support can easily be added in the form of layers which extend the systems capabilities in a modular way.
As an integration layer Poky consists of several upstream projects such as BitBake, OpenEmbedded-Core, Yocto documentation and various sources of information e.g. for the hardware support. Poky is in turn a component of the Yocto Project.
The Yocto Project has extensive documentation about the system including a reference manual which can be found at: http://yoctoproject.org/community/documentation
OpenEmbedded-Core is a layer containing the core metadata for current versions of OpenEmbedded. It is distro-less (can build a functional image with DISTRO = "") and contains only emulated machine support.
