This has now been fixed in latest master - thanks for pointing it out.

You can use whatever subdirectory name you like there, ${PN} (which would
resolve to "busybox") is just traditional. In this case the author of the
bbappend chose to use ${P} which is the same as ${PN}-${PV}, which in this
case resolves to "busybox-1.20.2", thus making the directory specific to the
version of busybox being built.
