I think this is where the Bugzilla description needs to be verbose.

Toolchain for me includes:  userspace kernel headers (but not the kernel), 
binutils, gcc, "the libc" (uclibc, glibc, eglibc), and gdb.

Yes, I agree. the kernel needs to be treated as a separate project as it is an 
external item to Poky -- but part of the overall Yocto Project.
