Andreas: Yes, this is the layer stack independence that meta-ti is 
suppose to have and currently does not.  When meta-ti is "done" it is 
suppose to work in:

core layer stack: oe-core + meta-ti
yocto layer stack: poky + meta-ti
angstrom layer stack: oe-core + meta-oe + meta-angstrom + meta-ti + many 
more)
arago layer stack: TBD but at least oe-core + meta-oe + meta-ti + 
meta-arago)

As Koen points out we have a good many hurdles to get to the above. 
Stay tuned.
