I believe with the collection stuff we don't need to do this kind of
move for easier / smaller local.conf files.

I think what we really need to do (in part because I think there's some
bitbake changes needed for compelete functionality) we need to bump
dev's minimum bitbake and update local.conf.sample and the wiki.  Oh,
and check with Chris to make sure everything he's got in these areas is
in :)
