Based on the error, what you're talking about here are not recipes - these are 
*packages* you're adding to IMAGE_INSTALL, is that correct?

Anything with -native at the end is a recipe that is intended to build for the 
build host, so it wouldn't make sense to add "autogen-native" to a list of 
packages to be installed into an image for the target. The equivalent package 
name for the target would be simply "autogen", except no recipe producing this 
target package exists (there is only autogen-native). If you really need 
autogen for the target you're going to have to write (or adapt) a recipe for 
it yourself.

The dhcp case is different - the "dhcp" package is actually empty and thus a 
package file for it is never produced; the reason it is empty is that the 
server and client portions are packaged separately in dhcp-server and 
dhcp-client packages respectively, so you'll need to decide which of these you 
want and specify those to be installed instead.

Cheers,
Paul
