OK, so I got my other difficulties fixed, and finally sorted out which servers were online and which version to build.
But now my build dies when compiling tslib. I deleted the /tmp directory and retried the whole build again just to be sure, and it happened again. Here's the output from bitbake at the console (shown here being restarted immmediately after the initial tslib failure):
