Bitbake already has such a mechanism and like I mentioned earlier in
this thread, it's of limited use, since the PRs won't get changed, so
from a DISTRO POV you still need to manually increment each affected PR
or bump DISTRO_PR, which will rebuild everything.
And even if we could bump PR automatically, we need a way to distribute
that too all buildhosts.

And yes, I'm cranky because I need exactly this to deal with the bzip2
SOVERSION fallout :/

Koen
