[oe] native preferences

Hi all,

I tried to build a "minimal" distribution image lately and ran into some trouble
 because the old-style native packages seem to be preferred over the new ones
using BBCLASSEXTEND.
In this case we have glib-2.0-native 2.24.1 provided by the new mechanism and
2.22.1 gets build which is the latest old-style native bb.
To build an image we would have to set the preferences manually or drop all old
native packages. I do not see a reason why this behaviour should be desirable -
a native package should follow the same preferences rules like other packages
independent from the mechanism that provides them. Or do I miss something here?

Greetings

Florian
