I'm worried about setting specific preferred versions in the machine configs - 
it doesn't look very scalable...

I'm willing to suggest to drop all DEFAULT_PREFERENCE = "-1" from the 
corresponding recipes and let the build pick the latest "compatible" version, 
unless overwritten by a distro with own PREFERRED_VERSION.

The only drawback I see is that some people still use 4.05 Gfx SDK on omap3 
and beagleboard, as that version had the best x11 support (or the least 
broken).

So, we can fix that particular issue by adding DEFAULT_PREFERENCE_omap3 = "99" 
to that recipe to bump it up.

Or, if not removing DEFAULT_PREFERENCE = "-1" from all Gfx SDK recipes, then 
just add overrides for ti33x and ti43x to bump the preference in 5.00.00.01 
recipe only...

Thoughts?
