This sneaked in with a load of other patches. I never meant to merge
this as I consider it broken.

Task packages are cheap and having them being machine specific imposes
little overhead. Splitting this into two just increases the parsing
overhead through the number of recipes and doesn't do much else since
there are still machine specific packages involved, all dependencies
still get built etc. so I really don't see the point of the added
complexity.

I'll get flamed to death if I revert this now so I guess I'm stuck :(

Cheers,

Richard
