Right, the STAMP variable really specifies the main part of the path + filename for stamp files for a particular recipe, not just the directory. MULTIMACH_TARGET_SYS is a variable used in a number of places to separate files for different machines such that you can build for multiple target machines using the same output directories. EXTENDPE is a variable for use in file/path names which will act as a prefix for the version based on PE if PE is set and greater than zero for the recipe, or else will be empty. e.g. if PE is "1" then EXTENDPE will be "1_", whereas if PE is not set (the default) or 0 then EXTENDPE will be "".
