  i forgot to mention this snippet i ran across in the meta-angstrom
layer's contrib/local.conf:

BBFILES := "/OE/org.openembedded.dev/recipes/*/*.bb"
BBMASK = ""

that combination isn't something that appears to be explained anywhere
and some readers might wonder what it means to explicitly set BBFILES
and clear BBMASK.
