This is loosly based upon srctree.bbclass from OE-Classic but with some
changes appropriate to OE-Core.

+# externalsrc.bbclass enables use of an existing source tree, usually external to 
+# the build system to build a piece of software rather than the usual fetch/unpack/patch
+# process.
+#
+# To use, set S to point at the directory you want to use containing the sources
+# e.g. S = "/path/to/my/source/tree"
+#
+# If the class is to work for both target and native versions (or with multilibs/
+# cross or other BBCLASSEXTEND variants), its expected that setting B to point to 
+# where to place the compiled binaries will work (split source and build directories).
+# This is the default but B can be set to S if circumstaces dictate.
