* Don't prefix the subject with "poky/". And for bbclasses it is 
  better to use the full filename as prefix, i.e.,
  "package.bbclass: ..." to distinguish them from recipe names.
* These patches belong on the openembedded-core@lists.openembedded.org 
  mailing list.
* Your mailer is mangling the patches, introducing newlines that 
  makes it impossible to apply the patches without manually 
  removing the extra newlines.
