Rather than just d.getVar(X), force the use of the more explict d.getVar(X, False)
since at some point in the future, having the default of expansion would
be nice. This is the first step towards that.

Layers can update to this calling convention with a command along the lines of:

sed -e 's:\(getVar([^,()]*\)\s*):\1, False):g' -i `grep -ril getVar *`

Patches for OE-Core and Bitbake are on the mailing lists. Its an open question
whether we want to do this, on what timescale and whether we do the same
with getVarFLag at the same time?

Paul confirmed that other layers don't have too many of these unexpanded
getVar calls.

Did you mean that in the future:

d.getVar("PN") equals d.getVar("PN", True) ?

That would be great since expand=True uses more frequently
than False.

The idea would be to get there, yes. How quickly we could do it is a
good question but this would be the first step.

Cheers,
