  related to richard's earlier post about how to exclude packages,
shouldn't the initial settings be consistent, then?  either a default
yocto setup should include commercial licenses, or exclude them (and
their packages) entirely.  it seems that running a simple "bitbake
world" shouldn't just fail.
