One thing I'm curious about, why does this work? It seems like licensing issues and autobuild issues should be separate concerns.

Ah, after talking with Fathi, I figure where confusion may come from - any licensing stuff I talked about is related to downloading tarballs as pointed by SOURCE_OVERLAY, not to licensing of binaries as produced by the build. The latter is handled by BUILDINFO.txt as previously, and orthogonal to what was discussed in these mails. I guess, to avoid confusion, the var should be named SOURCE_OVERLAY_ACCEPT_LICENSE.
