[oe] [PATCH] Remove the micro distro specific overridding of variables

[Phil Blundell]

You can't just rename DISTROs arbitrarily like that since all the
overrides will go wrong.  I think most or all of your build failures are
probably due to your "micro-eglibc" distro being neither one thing or
another.

Please try building with DISTRO=micro (and not anything else that you
believe to be equivalent) and see if your situation improves.
