  i thought i had a handle on using FILESPATH and its association with
.bbappend files until i ran across the oe-core recipe
meta/recipes-support/libpcre/libpcre_8.32.bb and this line in it:

FILESPATH .= ":${@base_set_filespath([bb.which(BBPATH, \
'recipes-support/libpcre/files', direction=True)], d)}"

this is doing the kind of appending i expect to see in a .bbappend
file, and it looks redundant anyway since the "files" directory is
automatically part of FILESPATH.

  so ... what is the purpose of the above?  thanks.
