This basically concatenates qemu to what ever is already in BBMASK. It 
is a regex expression so you want to treat it as such.
You want to likely do something like:
BBMASK .= "|(qemu)"

OTOH, qemu matches anythin with qemu in the path. You likely want to use 
the full filename:
BBMASK .= "|(qemu_qoriq.bb <http://qemu_qoriq.bb>)"
