I wondered about that.

Still, I think we should keep it, in case we need to update both PATHs
with new entries.

We could obviously do:

    TARGET_PATH = $(FOO_CONFIG_DIR):$(HOST_PATH)

but that would not fly too far if we need to add dirs to HOST_PATH that
should not be in TARGET_PATH.

So I prefer to keep BR_PATH (which we could rename as BR_COMMON_PATH).

Yann E. MORIN.
