Thanks, Paul.

Ultimately, it might be possible to support multi-distro setup and ensure that 
distro-specific changes only get applied if corresponding DISTRO is selected.
But, this hasn't been a priority when developing Arago distro - it started 
before Yocto Project came out, since OE Classic/Angstrom days.

On the other hand, meta-ti BSP does support usage in multi-BSP setups and 
extra care has been taken to ensure that. Not so much for meta-arago, 
unfortunately. So, right now including Arago distro with a different 
DISTRO setting is not officially support and is probably not something to 
be resolved in the near future.
