Its probably exactly this change the breaks things. git SRC_URIs have a
dependency on git-native. git-native probably depends on
gnu-config-native indirectly. The end result is a circular dependency.
Bitbake tried to work this out but obviously got lost in the circular
logic.

It did try and warn you with:
