Thats not really true, they don't provide this at build time. This is RPROVIDES
vs. PROVIDES. Someone must have removed the hotplug packages from OE... it might
be possible that you can simply use hotplug-ng instead of this but i didn't try
this before. But the missing hotplug stuff might be worth a question to OE
mailingist. If this didn't happen by accident i don't call this a clever idea...

I could do this, but i don't think it will help - its rather old.
