[oe] do_rootfs fails

Ok, I admit it, I am totally confused by this whole "debian",
"multimachine", "package_ipk" stuff. I've been able to avoid
understanding this and think that this might be why bootstrap.image
won't build a filesystem image.
Prior to a month ago, I was using my own task + image bb files to build
my image. Since a lot of work has been done to make the task-base more
generic, I have moved my project over to using the stock
bootstrap-image.bb and task-base.bb files. However, it fails to build
properly.
When running a "bitbake bootstrap-image", everything builds but then
fails with:

========= snip =============
When I check the logfile, it says that "sh: fakeroot: command not
found". This is correct, fakeroot-native has NOT been built. So, I do
a "bitbake -c rebuild fakeroot-native", then run "bitbake
bootstrap-image" again.
It then fails with a logfile message of
"/home/tom/oezipit/tmp/work/zipit-linux/bootstrap-image-1.0-r0/temp/run.do_rootfs.24175:
line 312: ipkg-cl: command not found". Again, this is true, ipkg-native
is not present. So, I do a "bitbake -c rebuild ipkg-native", then run
"bitbake bootstrap-image" again.
Now it builds the filesystem target tarball image.
How can I automate those needs for fakeroot-native and ipkg-native? I'm
not sure where to look, this was working a few weeks ago.
