Does busybox or something else provide a compatible adduser? If so maybe a
virtual RDEPENDS is more reasonable in this case.
I think we're caught in the case of we build packages.. as such we need to cover

virtual depend, we can likely fake it by providing it by something else.. but
I'm not sure..
