[oe] Where do I override DISTRO_FEATURES?

Hello Mike,

Angstrom uses linux-libc-headers-3.2 for user space ABI. It's a rather
dangerous hack, but it enables you to use 2.6.37 with a state of the
art user space. If you're curious just take a look at
<https://github.com/DFE/HidaV>, that's our layer stack. The wiki has
some documentation, too:
<https://github.com/DFE/HidaV/wiki/Hidav-oe-layers>.

Basically we use everything from meta-ti, meta-oe + meta-angstrom, and
oe-core (let's not talk about meta-java ;) ). We just stick it
together in meta-hidav, and so far angstrom-v2012.x works for us.

Regards,
Thilo
