In the PDF version of the reference guide there were several glossary
variables that did not format correctly. The issue is that the two-
column list had instances where the variable name overruns the
variable description. I added an extra line return for these cases.

MACHINE_ESSENTIALS_EXTRA_RDEPENDS, MACHINE_ESSENTIALS_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS,
MACHINE_EXTRA_RDEPENDS, and MACHINE_EXTRA_RRECOMMENDS. These

Several manuals and areas were still referring to 'glibc' as the
GNU version of the Unix statndrd C library. We do not support this
any longer and now use 'eglibc' to build with. Notable changes were
in the required packages area of the QS manual. I also added a
bit in the reference guide saying how this release does not use
'glibc' to build with but rather 'eglibc'.

This bug was filed by Gary Thomas and was requesting more information
on the "hows" and "whys" of setting up your own package repositories.
At this point, I have added information to help the user understand
build performance issues when choosing between the RPM and IPKG packaging
systems. Likely, there is more that needs to be added to fully address
this bug.
For now, I added explanations in the packaging class and glossary areas
of the YP reference manual, a new paragraph in the YP QS just prior to
firing off a build, and a new bit of information in the configuring
PMS in the ADT Manual.

for the ADT, BSP, Development, and YP reference manual.
Most changes were taken as he submitted them. However, some
formatting conventions were not followed in the commits he made
to yocto-docs/paule/docs2. After merging them to my yocto-docs/master
branch I fixed some issues.
