Nothing leaks into the 3rd party extensions as far as I know. The
Makefile is used by distutils (i.e. distutils.sysconfig) to determine
the compiler settings.
In the case of a 3rd partyextension the flow is as follows:
* distutils.bbclass uses python-native + distutils-native to generate
the package
* distutils-native looks up the compiler settings via
distutils.sysconfig (-native) in
${STAGING_LIBDIR}/python<pyver>/config/Makefile
(it is thus important that STAGING_LIBDIR is set by distutils.bbclass)
* 3rd party extension is compiled using the settings from this Makefile
The compilation on the target should still be possible (although I
didn't test it), because the target's Makefile is untouched.
The actual problem was that the targets Makefile did get staged and
the compiler and linker have been invoked with the targets libs, for
instance -L/usr/lib.
