I presume you mean you're building core-image-minimal with packages added to 
it, because core-image-minimal by itself would never trigger a build of 
apache2-native.

Regarding the failure itself, I suspect that there is a missing dependency on 
libpcre-native in the apache2-native recipe.

No, the better workaround would be to run

  bitbake libpcre-native

(or add libpcre-native to DEPENDS in the apache2-native recipe, which I will 
add to my todo list.)
