I was hoping for bitbake world to work as a QA tool. But my efforts on
the world target didn't really receive a warm welcome. By now world is
so utterly broken that bitbake won't even ever start to execute any
tasks (I killed bitbake after two days when it still did nothing the
last time I tried).
Can someone explain what bitbake world does?
I would be happier working toward a set of images building for a set of
distributions.

Unfortunately, currently there is no consensus in OE that
"MACHINE=$machine bitbake $bb" shouldn't arbitrarily fail somewhere.
Right now, OE does not have the tools in place to specify that for
example $bb1 does not compile for $machineA (some people are very
allergic to COMPATIBLE_MACHINE for no particular reason). Bitbake can't
do versioned depends and so we can't say that $bb2-$version does not
compile with gcc less than 3.4.x, for example. Those are just two
examples. XorA "solved" this in a hackish way with angsstrom.bbclass.
