Also, I don't think there's any precedent for globs in the metadata: all
the other variables I can think of (COMPATIBLE_HOST etc) are regexps.
The fact that people have been using it wrongly up to now doesn't seem
like a particularly compelling reason to change bitbake's behaviour.

There aren't all that many PACKAGES_DYNAMICses in oe-core (and
presumably not all that many more in meta-oe either) and it wouldn't be
very hard to just fix them.  I think we should do that.
