  expecting the standard reaction to be, "hey, feel free to submit a
patch :-)", i've noticed that there are (unsurprisingly) quite a
number of variables missing from the variable glossary in the ref
manual.

  just related to u-boot (which i've been messing with this morning),
here's the current situation:

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/latest/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-U

and what seems to be missing is:

  * UBOOT_ARCH
  * UBOOT_SUFFIX
  * UBOOT_BINARY
  * UBOOT_IMAGE
  * UBOOT_MAKE_TARGET
  * UBOOT_SYMLINK

short of submitting full patches for things like this, is there at
least a list we can keep track of this stuff on? i'm not sure i have
the time to submit full explanatory patches for everything i run
across, but i can at least report what's missing if that's useful.
