As a guess, bitbake is ignoring the value of the BUILD_NUMBER environment
variable. You can add the variable to BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE but you need to do so
outside of bitbake as the value needs to be set when bitbake starts
(BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE is an environment variable).

Googling BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE should provide more information.
