For reference common include files are usually placed in
conf/machine/include/. If that happens they also need non-generic
suitably namespaced names, likely including "x86" or "ia32" in this
case.

The benefit is you can then refer to one of these includes from another
layer.

It also means you can refer to them as:

include conf/machine/includes/xxx

in other conf files removing some of the potential path issues.

I do like the cleanup this gives though, this is just a detail! :)

Cheers,

Richard
