If that output is placed in a reasonable place in sysroot-destdir/ and
pulled in via DEPENDS, then yes, that's fine. But it's also okay to do the
build in two steps like above from a single recipe - there are more than a
few recipes where native helper binaries are built to aid with the target
build, typically the build system itself is able to use BUILD_CC for it, or
a custom task is written where CC is set to BUILD_CC explicitly.
I think you should experiment with both options.
