The function is used to save additional variables in the configuration file when the user adds a new (key, value) pair from the Settings->Others. There was a problem though when the function was trying to retrieve an older instance of EXTRA_SETTINGS from the configuration file. Sometimes its value was returned as a dictionary and sometimes a string, which caused a crash when calling ast.literal_eval(). The reason of the problem must be a change in bitbake's parsing system. The changes will fix this issues. While analysing this problem I discovered that the variables were not saved properly in the configuration file after consecutive changes to Settings->Others because of the way saveConfigurationVar() from cooker.py works. This patch will also solve this issue.
