We had one problem with the recipes that need to include files from the main
layer. Thanks to the guy now I know that I just need to use the full path to
solve this.
Another problem was a strange one. It was about poky's distro includes. When I
started working on our distro I've just copied conf/distro/poky.conf to our new
layer with new name and changed it a bit. This worked but I got a bunch of
warnings about multiply providers. Then I've copied the conf/distro/include
directory into our layer and all these warnings gone. Unfortunately I can't
reproduce this behavior any more.

So, it looks like we have solved the problem with includes and now we are fine
with our own layer.

Thanks for your help, guys!

Regards, Ilya.
