Before we can declare that, we need to look what comm is actually used

Consider also that using comm from host may break reproducibility, if
absence or presence of comm on the host results in a different output
from the build.

My patch initially did add coreutils-native to u-boot DEPENDS.

Should I resubmit it? (did not apply due to mismatch in recipe filename 
(version))

RP has already merged the patch you sent, I think :)

Still, in my opinion - yes, it's better to undo the HOSTTOOLS change, and add coreutils-native. But first, research a bit further for what purpose comm is used during build and why its absence doesn't break it.
