    <thetext>Add UNKNOWN_CONFIGURE_WHITELIST to the variable reference in the ref manual. The description should be something like:

Specifies a list of options that, if reported by the configure script as being invalid, should not generate a warning during do_configure. Normally, invalid configure options should simply not be passed to the configure script at all (e.g. should be removed from EXTRA_OECONF), but there are for example common options we pass to all configure scripts at a class level that may not be valid for some configure scripts, and there is no benefit to seeing a warning about these - in which case they are added to UNKNOWN_CONFIGURE_WHITELIST.</thetext>

    <thetext>My name is Ross Burton and I endorse Paul&apos;s proposed paragraph.

Probably worth mentioning that the test is part of insane.bbclass, but only enabled if the recipe inherits autotools.bbclass.</thetext>

    <thetext>Hi, 

Here is a link to the variable.  Please review it and give me any feedback for corrections.  I was a bit unsure about the part Ross added.  Not sure what &quot;test&quot; really means here.  So, the wording might need adjustment for that part.

http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.9/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-UNKNOWN_CONFIGURE_WHITELIST

Thanks,
Scott</thetext>

    <thetext>&quot;test&quot; meant the code that looks at the log output and uses WHITELIST.  Maybe a clearer wording would be:

&quot;The configure arguments check that uses UNKNOWN_CONFIGURE_WHITELIST is part of the insane class [continue as before]&quot;.

Apart from that, looks good, thanks Scott.</thetext>

    <thetext>Ross, 

See http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.9/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-UNKNOWN_CONFIGURE_WHITELIST for the change.

Thanks,
