[meta-ti] Getting TI tools into [host] SDK

I'm trying to build a [host] SDK for my target which uses some
TI tools, via -c populate_sdk_ext

In particular, I'm using recipes-ti/devtools/ti-cgt-pru_2.1.4.bb
I include ti-cgt-pru-native to use the tools in my bitbake recipes - that works fine.
I include ti-cgt-pru in my target image to get the tools on my board - that also works.

The problem is that in my SDK, none of the binaries are included, including clpru:

$ ls -l /home/gthomas/my_ti_sdk/tmp/sysroots/rainier-p8701/usr/share/ti/cgt-pru
total 16
drwxrwxr-x 2 gthomas gthomas 12288 Mar  8 08:22 include
drwxrwxr-x 3 gthomas gthomas  4096 Mar  8 08:22 lib

I added this to try and include the files:
   TOOLCHAIN_HOST_TASK += "'nativesdk-ti-cgt-pru"
and I can see that there was a nativesdk-ti-cgt-pru built which does have all the
executables included, they just aren't being packaged.

$ ls 
tmp/work/x86_64-nativesdk-mysdk-linux/nativesdk-ti-cgt-pru/2.1.4-r0/image/opt/mydistro/2.2+snapshot/sysroots/x86_64-amltdsdk-linux/usr/share/ti/cgt-pru/bin
abspru    arpru   cgpru     clpru   dispru    hexpru  libinfopru  nmpru   optpru    xrefpru
acpiapru  asmpru  clistpru  dempru  embedpru  ilkpru  lnkpru      ofdpru  strippru

Any ideas on what I need to do to get the binary executables into my SDK?

Note: I copied just those (bin) files into my SDK target sysroot usr/bin and the compiler
runs just fine.  I just need to figure out the recipe magic to make this happen.

Thanks
