  i'm not sure where you counted 10 other instances but i did notice
the following, which confused me briefly: this appears to be an
example that is missing the trailing colon:

  meta-arm/recipes-kernel/linux/arm-ffa-transport.inc:
    FILESEXTRAPATHS:prepend := "${ARMFILESPATHS}"

except that the variable ARMFILESPATHS is defined to (you guessed it)
have a trailing colon.

  aaarrrggghhh.

i hate that sort of thing.
