I can see now how it might be useful to override, for
testing/customization purposes. Although best not to assume that all
variables can be overridden in local.conf via normal set operations
(you will most likely need to use _*/_force overrides on most recipes
internal variables).

However I have applied this patch.

Thanks,
Nathan
