[OE-core] simple dependency question

i realize that "DEPENDS" represents build-time dependencies, as in
... all of the DEPENDS recipes must build *completely* before this
recipe can *begin* to build, is that correct?
however, in something like module.bbclass where one finds:
do_make_scripts[deptask] = "do_populate_sysroot"
does that now *override* the normal build-time dependency to say only
that this recipe's do_make_scripts task need only wait until all of
the "DEPENDS" recipes have completed their do_populate_sysroot tasks?
in other words, the instant i define an inter-task dependency, does
that relax the normal strong build dependency? since, if it didn't,
this wouldn't make any sense.
