I think sticking to LSB for build dependencies is a very reasonable choice.

I still don't think the small C program is that much of a problem:

1) dependency tracking should ensure it is only built when the license
   feature is enabled by the board-level config.  I think this will be
   a minority case.

2) compilation of native programs has already to be possible since there
   are other native tools such as mkimage built during the compilation

Cheers,
