Perhaps this one is a valid one:
WARNING: .../libgcc-initial_6.3.bb:1: include/require/inherit
"recipes-devtools/gcc/gcc-${PV}.inc" resulted in including
"recipes-devtools/gcc/gcc-6.3.inc" while parsing. Variables effecting the
parameter changed later such that "recipes-devtools/gcc/gcc-6.3.0.inc" would
have been included at the end of the recipe.
PV changes, but that must have been anticipated as it clearly works as
intended.
