I have a configuration where I'm:
- using an external toolchain
- not using busybox
- selecting a very small number of starter packages

When I record the build and look at the steps involved it starts off
looking like the following:
>>> ncurses 5.7 Extracting
>>> ncurses 5.7 Patching package//ncurses
>>> ncurses 5.7  Updating config.sub and config.guess
>>> ncurses 5.7 Patching libtool
>>> host-ncurses 5.7 Extracting
>>> host-ncurses 5.7 Patching package//ncurses
>>> host-ncurses 5.7  Updating config.sub and config.guess
>>> host-ncurses 5.7 Patching libtool
>>> host-ncurses 5.7 Configuring
>>> host-ncurses 5.7 Building
>>> host-ncurses 5.7 Installing to host directory
>>> ncurses 5.7 Configuring
>>> ncurses 5.7 Building
>>> ncurses 5.7 Installing to staging directory
>>> ncurses 5.7 Installing to target
...

Since ncurses and host-ncurses use the autotools I was just wondering
if it was an oversight that they're not first building and using
host-autotools.
