Yes, that would be neater. As it happens I did try that first but it
didn't seem to work: for reasons which were (and remain) a bit
mysterious to me, the original EXTRAPERLDEPS were always showing up in
DEPENDS for the virtclass-native build. I assumed at the time that
there was some ordering problem between the override being processed and
the ORIG_DEPENDS assignment in native.bbclass, but I wasn't entirely
sure what the intended semantics were and so I didn't pursue that line
of enquiry any further.
