It would be, but I was afraid of what I might break. I suspect that there
are many unseen third-party and local recipes that inherit module.bbclass.

It would be great to get to the point that EXTRA_OEMAKE is empty by default
but I imagine that the experts are already aware of the difficulties with
doing this which is why the current value has lasted so long.
