How is this used?  I tried just adding a pointer to that tree
in my conf/bblayers.conf.  I also tried moving that tree into
my poky sources at the same level as meta-emenlow, etc.  Both
attempts immediately yielded this error:
   ERROR: Unable to parse conf/bitbake.conf: Could not include required file conf/machine/include/omap3.inc

Perhaps you can give some guidance for how to use this?

Thanks
