Comment 1 Scott Rifenbark 2013-02-11 20:33:23 UTC 
The description for this variable has been updated to reflect its use with and without "_prepend".  Additional cross-referencing has also been provided to the variable's glossary description from sections in the dev-manual and the bsp-guide. 

the description of the variable in the glossary is at http://www.yoctoproject.org/docs/1.4/ref-manual/ref-manual.html#var-FILESEXTRAPATHS.
