I cleaned all direct dependencies manually via <project>-clean and 
removing the apropriate .stamp_ entries in the output/build directory.

Demo code https://github.com/drahnr/buildrootbugdemo
Note: I do not have the machine at hand to test it right now, but I'd 
really appreciate if somebody could give it a whirl.

Thanks a lot!

Best

Bernhard
