On an x86_64 system, libiberty does not appears to be present in the sysroot/x86_64-linux/usr/lib directory as it should be.

Normally (on a 32-bit platform) libiberty is built as a side effect of the binutils-native package build, but for some reason it's not present in this situation.

I tried this on my fedora 12 64bit system. And prelink_git is building fine.

root caused issue as libiberty.a file being installed in wrong location. 
RP helped pinpoint the issue in the code. And the issue is fixed now. Sent a pull request to the poky@o-hand mailing list.
