Oops I missed my requirements:
	- Easy to understand what is going on
	- Package name and Workdir matching with each other
	- Full rebuild on DISTRO_PR bump
	- Not reusing the same build directory

And here two patches. The amount of changes is a lot smaller. The downside is 
it is not as easy to understand as changin PR to FILE_PR (think of the people 
merging OE into their private trees that know little about the classes...). 
Anyway this is something we can talk about..
