For OE-dev you do but this shouldn't be necessary any more with OE-Core
since there is no legacy staging.

In this case I wonder if the -native version or the target version is
being run? We only install libs and headers for the target version but
the binaries should be present for the -native recipe and be installed
to the native sysroot...
