You're using the poky distribution which for build performance uses
uninative (from 477b8fb), which means that instead of building native
dependencies per-host-distribution there's a static libc which is built
against to enable native binaries to be host-agnostic.

Poky has enabled this for performance, but others may wish to do the same
for other reasons: for example, you want to publish a sstate feed that
works for all host distributions without having to build for all of them.

It can (see meta/conf/distro/include/yocto-uninative.inc), or you can
uninherit uninative, or use your own DISTRO instead of poky.
