I understand you solved your problem, but I have a follow-up 
question/comment for you.

Based on your solution, it would be interesting to see the output of 
bitbake -e native-test both before and after your change to to adding 
the "/" and also the BBCLASSEXTEND change.

I do not think that the BBCLASSEXTEND change is correct, since you do 
really only want a native built not a target and native.

You should just be using ${includedir} directly in your do_install() 
since the native.bbclass fixes the ${exec_prefix} which ${includedir} uses.

Give that a try and you can use bitbake -e to check the variables.

Sau!
