Previously if you put something in place of that blank line uncommented,
bitbake might have ignored it under certain circumstances. This is
rather unexpected by users.

We therefore made bitbake ask the users to say what they mean :)

Its a bit of a short term pain but a win for usability after that.

Cheers,
