Maybe better solution would be as small change to staging hierarchy:

Suppose that build platform is i686-linux and target platform is
i686-linux as well.

- target system staging files have prefix /usr and are sysrooted:
  now:      tmp/staging/i686-linux
  proposed: tmp/staging/i686-linux

- native toolchain files have prefix /OE/tmp/staging/i686-linux as native location
  now:      tmp/staging/i686-linux
  proposed: tmp/staging/i686-linux-native

This will prevent path clash if build and target triplets are exactly
the same. => It will allow simple native build using OE toolchain.

Side effect: It will invalidate existing buildroots.
