[oe] QA issues with libvmime

[Nathan Harris]

I am working on a recipe for the VMime library (http://www.vmime.org/).  
My target environment is the Overo (Gumstix).  Currently, bitbake is 
failing during the final QA.  My recipe, patch and bitbake output are 
below.  Hopefully, this error is familiar to someone.  Thanks!

Here's my recipe:

DESCRIPTION = "VMime is a free mail library for C++"
HOMEPAGE = "http://www.vmime.org/"
DEPENDS = "libgsasl gnutls"
PR = "r1"

SRC_URI = "${SOURCEFORGE_MIRROR}/vmime/${PN}-${PV}.tar.bz2"
SRC_URI[md5sum] = "d5b6de44f7f9ca0e4cefe597d1905605"
SRC_URI[sha256sum] = 
"3b66cb76d9bc7da80ef1f271cc29d3a183b5ff8b560ef60e85ff006bffb4d1ae"

SRC_URI += "file://sendmail_disable.patch"

# Older internal Libtool doesn't work
EXTRA_OEMAKE += "LIBTOOL='${HOST_SYS}-libtool'"

#S = ${WORKDIR}/${PN}-${PV}
#EXTRA_OECONF = "--disable-largefile --disable-rpath 
--with-included-readline=no 
--with-libgsasl-prefix=${STAGING_DIR}/${HOST_SYS} --with-gnutls-prefix=$
{STAGING_DIR}/${HOST_SYS}"

inherit scons

Here's my patch which disables sendmail from the build:

Here's the bitbake error:
