[meta-xilinx] should elvis' meta-xilinx layer be synced with poky right now?

[Robert P. J. Day]

  (wasn't sure i should post this or email elvis directly, hope this
is appropriate.)

  in the spirit of the ongoing layer discussion, i wanted to
experiment with just building a bootable u-boot for my zedboard so i
started with elvis' yocto meta-xilinx layer from here:

  git://git.yoctoproject.org/meta-xilinx

according to the README, this layer needs poky HEAD so i added that to
bblayers.conf, then ran bitbake-env to check on the u-boot-xilinx
recipe and got:

ERROR: No recipes available for:

/home/rpjday/oe/dist/layers/xilinx/yocto-elvis/recipes-support/db/db_5.3.15.bbappend
/home/rpjday/oe/dist/layers/xilinx/yocto-elvis/recipes-devtools/gnu-config/gnu-config_20111111.bbappend
/home/rpjday/oe/dist/layers/xilinx/yocto-elvis/recipes-core/gettext/gettext_0.18.1.1.bbappend
/home/rpjday/oe/dist/layers/xilinx/yocto-elvis/recipes-core/util-linux/util-linux_2.21.2.bbappend
ERROR: Command execution failed: Exited with 1

  should this work? it sure looks like that xilinx layer is out of
date with respect to poky, which has newer recipes of all of the
above. am i doing something silly?

  and while i'm here, a question about the u-boot recipe in that same
layer.  there are two u-boot recipes:

u-boot-xilinx_2012.10.bb
u-boot-xilinx_git.bb

neither of them being .bbappend files, but both contain the FILESPATH
setting:

FILESPATH = "${@base_set_filespath([ '${FILE_DIRNAME}/${PN}/${SOC_FAMILY}' ], d)}"

i'm not sure what's going on there, what is that supposed to
accomplish since there are no file subdirectories for either of those
recipes. thanks.
