Can someone provide a clear explanation of exactly what the gitpkgv 
class does and why it is needed? Furthermore, does oe-core provide 
something that could be used? It is clear that ther eis a desire for 
something like this in two layers, and that makes it a candidate for 
oe-core.

Symlinking stuff across layers is just wrong. The underlying issue has 
to be resolved.
