Its possible for classes listed in INHERIT directives to use things like the oe.utils functions. If that happens the user sees a traceback since the modules don't become available until the ConfigParsed event.
Whilst rather ugly, this change means that the oe modules become available much sooner and can be used in the core classes, including within base.bbclass.
