Sorry for bringing up this old thread. I'm seeing these and similar errors now
(nothing really changed in my setup, but some race got them exposed).

I do see that the proposed patch got merged all the way back in February. But
looks like it wasn't enough.

I've just seen this error about missing sysroots/x86_64-linux//bin/sed coming
from nativesdk-gettext compilation while calling i686-linux-libtool, i.e. the
nativesdk version of libtool. Should be easy to duplicate the below patch for
libtool from native to nativesdk recipe.

And another error was from sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/bin/opkg-build during
do_package_write of some other package. Should opkg-utils-native be patched
the same?
