What would also probably help is adding help2man-native to
SSTATE_EXCLUDEDEPS_SYSROOT in layer.conf in OE-Core.

That runs the risk of triggering some build failures as it did when we
added pkgconfig-native there but is probably the right thing to do. It
would force recipes that want help2man-native to have an explicit
DEPENDS so we'd have to test and fix any recipes that needed that
adding.
