  ironically, i'm working on this very example and something in the
dev manual doesn't look right.  section A.5.2.1:

These commands take care of the recipes-bsp recipes:

  $ rm -rf meta-mymachine/recipes-graphics/xorg-xserver/*emgd*
  ... snip ...

why is that command referring to the recipes-graphics directory when
this section is supposed to be adjusting recipes-bsp?

or have i screwed something up?
