[RFC] mysterious armv5te-linux dir under staging

Hi

On hrw's suggestion I looked into the mysterious directory armv5te-linux
creation on my omap5912osk build.

This directory is created by staging tasks for cross packages like
gcc-cross, binutils-cross gdb-cross etc. 

This is because in bitbake.conf we set 

BASEPKG_HOST_SYS = "${BASE_PACKAGE_ARCH}${HOST_VENDOR}-${HOST_OS}"

which is ok for target recipes but its not ok for native or cross
recipes.

It works for native because native.bbclass redefines it. I decided
to change it to 


BASEPKG_HOST_SYS = "${HOST_ARCH}${HOST_VENDOR}-${HOST_OS}"

HOST_ARCH is defined based on -native -target or -cross package
so it works in all cases. Overriding in native.bbclass would not
be needed but I left it in there

Does anyone sees problem with this little patchlet ?

Thanks

It turns out to be that the correct results are obtained if it is
overwrritten in cross.bbclass.

Here is revised patch.

After rebuild from scratch the bogus dir has disappeared!
Tested on angstrom/dev/glibc/c7x0
