[OE-core] puzzled about definition of "build" task

[Robert P. J. Day]

  first time i noticed this in base.bbclass:

addtask build after do_populate_sysroot
do_build = ""             <--- ????
do_build[func] = "1"
do_build[noexec] = "1"
do_build[recrdeptask] += "do_deploy"
do_build () {
        :
}

  what's with the lines

do_build = ""
do_build[func] = "1"

i've never seen that construct with any other tasks.
