I put the .inc in this patch, indeed because it was there in OE
Classic. I can update the patch if there is a consensus to remove the
.inc.

also for the INC_PR, I added it, because I thought it makes sense for
.bb with .inc to have that. again, i can update the patch if you
recommend doing this way.

thx
