Oops, I forgot about that.
It would be possible to move the definition of PATCH_BASE_DIRS to
inner-generic-package (i.e. call it $(2)_PATCH_BASE_DIRS and expand
$($(PKG)_PATCH_BASE_DIRS) in the pattern rule). However, it's a lot
clearer to define something like $(2)_BRDIR in inner-generic-package.

Arnout
