I just checked why is autogen in oe-core in the first place. The
only thing that needs it now is grub, and it will no longer be
necessary when Khem's grub 2.02 patch shows up in master. So then
we can remove the whole thing. But thanks for fixing! :)

I went through Khem's grub2 changes:
http://cgit.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/commit/?h=kraj/master&id=0af89270aa83d6ad0a4859e18643b53191567c8b
and in those changes the grub2.inc still reads

DEPENDS = "flex-native bison-native autogen-native"

So I think this can be valuable :)

Don't take what DEPENDS says as authoritative on the subject. :) The only way to tell if some dependency is no longer needed is careful inspection of upstream code.

In this case:
