I tried to implement some comments by Richard on the B glossary
entry and the externalsrc.bbclass section. The comments were a bit
confusing to me but the gist of it was I mis-interpreted Richard's
comments on supporting separate directories for B and S. I had
indicated that autotools-based recipes did this by default, which
was wrong. What was confusing to me is where the comments should
be. I ended up putting them in both areas of the reference manual.

the glossary description for DL_DIR. Part of that added information
is a pointer to the FAQ entry that describes exactly how the

in the section that introduces the build process, I added several
references to various variables that are set in the local.conf
file prior to kicking off the build.

I added more information about how BitBake actually runs a task.
The information has to do with how tightly BB controls the execution
environment of the build tasks to prevent contamination from the
build machine from leaking into the task execution environment.
This tight control actually causes some unexpected behavior during
builds. For example, when a user exports and BB_ENV_EXTRAWHITE
an environment item such as CCACHE_DIR, the effects of the environment
item never make it to the BB task execution environment. They only
make it to the data store. The user actually has to take some extra
steps to export that environment item into the task execution environment.
The added information I put into the "Running a Task" section describes
these extra steps.
