When multiconfig is used bitbake might try to run events that don't exist for specific mc target. In cooker.py we pass `self.databuilder.mcdata[mc]` data that contains names of events' handlers per mc target, but fire_class_handlers uses global _handlers variable that is created during parsing of all the targets. This leads to a problem where bitbake runs event handler that don't exist for a target or even overrides them - if multiple targets use event handler with the same name but different code then only one version will be executed for all targets. See [YOCTO #13071] for detailed bug information. Add mc target name as a prefix to event handler name so there won't be two different handlers with the same name. Add internal __BBHANDLERS_MC variable to have the handlers lists per machine.

Bitbake
BitBake is a generic task execution engine that allows shell and Python tasks to be run efficiently and in parallel while working within complex inter-task dependency constraints. One of BitBake's main users, OpenEmbedded, takes this core and builds embedded Linux software stacks using a task-oriented approach.
For information about Bitbake, see the OpenEmbedded website: http://www.openembedded.org/
Bitbake plain documentation can be found under the doc directory or its integrated html version at the Yocto Project website: http://yoctoproject.org/documentation
Contributing
Please refer to http://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded for guidelines on how to submit patches, just note that the latter documentation is intended for OpenEmbedded (and its core) not bitbake patches (bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org) but in general main guidelines apply. Once the commit(s) have been created, the way to send the patch is through git-send-email. For example, to send the last commit (HEAD) on current branch, type:
git send-email -M -1 --to bitbake-devel@lists.openembedded.org
