The yocto-bsp script could be improved, and this was actually fixed by
this patchset:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky-contrib/log/?h=tzanussi/yocto-bsp-fixes-2219-2330

It wasn't pulled in in time, so until it hits 1.2.1, we'll have to just
document it, either using your suggestion or maybe it would make sense
to change the quickstart to use the following setup:

 $ tar xjf poky-denzil-7.0.tar.bz2
 $ cd poky-denzil-7.0
 $ source oe-init-build-env

Which seems easier to have people start with anyway, and also allows the
released script to work without the patchset...
