The easiest thing is to imagine what would happen were the recipe to be 
BBCLASSEXTENDed to native - would xyz-native make sense where you've used the 
reference, or does it always need to be xyz regardless of how it is being 
built? If the former, PN (or P with the version); if the latter, BPN (or BP 
with the version).

It was pointed out recently on IRC that we may need to expand and adjust the 
section in the dev manual so it provides more of a step-by-step guide to 
creating a recipe, and I plan to work with Scott to do that for this cycle, so 
we should be able to include this as part of that.

Cheers,
Paul
