Yes, do not use _<scm> recipes in stable stuff, a known checkout of
the OE stable branch should either build or not for a particular
machine/distro/... combo.

If I checkout today's stable tree in one year time, it should build. Period.

That isn't going to work with _<scm> recipes being active in stable.

(and sorry for the badly formed statement - I don't take enough time
to write down what I would like to say - maybe I should just shut up).

Leon.
