Were you able to find out if glibc will definitely do this?

I think applying this nativesdk is the only thing we can do right now
and it does set us up well to migrate this further if glibc do go for
this. After thinking about this a bit, the patch series needs a few
minor tweaks to avoid wider testing failures:

a) libxcrypt needs to SkipRecipe in the target case and be nativesdk 
   only
b) We need an RDEPENDS_${PN}_append_class-nativesdk = " libxcrypto" in 
   glibc-package.inc
c) The override used in glibc-pacjage.inc is wrong suggesting the code 
   can be dropped.

Good news is a few of us tested this on f28, f27, ubuntu 1604 and 1710
and the new uninative built with it seems to work well.

Cheers,

Richard
