I find the "if/else" expression easier to read, there's no need for an
explicit d.getVar(), and there's an utility method for variables which
are meant to be booleans:
   ${@ 'volatile/' if oe.types.boolean('${VOLATILE_LOG_DIR'}) else '' }

Using the utility function ensures that typos are caught and allows
several other values besides yes/no.

The change itself of course works either way. Just my 2 cents ;-}
