That patch doesn't introduce anything new. It turns of an undocumented
dependency on host software.
We can argue what is better, to rely on stuff without documenting it or
to fetch missing stuff from the interwebs.
My preference would be to do as the commit message says and add the
missing recipe to OE, that would be a better way forward than breaking
one or the other.
