EXTRA_PACKAGES macro in src/nrelease/Makefile

I've been playing in the nrelease directory to customize the ISO image
and am finding that the EXTRA_PACKAGES macro isn't behaving the way I
would have expected (line 15 in the Makefile). Is the intent of this
macro to include additional packages in the image from the command
line? For example,

# make EXTRA_PACKAGES="XFree86-4.3.0,1" release

would add the XFree86 package to the install image. If so, here's a
patch.
