 Sounds like a good idea, but doesn't MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE already do
 this ? 
 
 .if !defined(MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE)
 MASTER_SITES+=  ${MASTER_SITE_BACKUP}
 PATCH_SITES+=   ${MASTER_SITE_BACKUP}
 .else
 MASTER_SITES:=  ${MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE} ${MASTER_SITES}
 PATCH_SITES:=   ${MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE} ${PATCH_SITES}
 .endif
 
 ${MASTER_SITE_OVERRIDE} doesn't (as I once thought) override
 ${MASTER_SITES}, it just prepends the one you name to the defined list.
