+                    A list of recipes that are completely stable and will 
+                    never change.
+                    The ABI for the recipes in the list are presented by
+                    output from the tasks run to build the recipe.
+                    Use of this variable is one way to remove dependencies from 
+                    one recipe on another that affect task signatures and
+                    thus force rebuilds when the recipe changes. 
+                    <caution>
+                        If you add an inappropriate variable to this list,
+                        other recipes might break when the interface of the 
+                        recipe changes after the other recipes have been
+                        built.
