FYI, we do do this already for most significant changes, and it was done for 
this one. The trouble with this specific issue is, if you happened to build a 
normal image prior to building meta-toolchain or indeed any other user of 
do_populate_sdk, the error will not occur because rpmresolve-native would 
already have been built; hence why this was missed.

Cheers,
Paul
