I don't see any reason the oe-core recipe couldn't provide the
packageconfig options, even missing the dependencies. They are valid
package configuration options, so they should exist in PACKAGECONFIG. If a
distro wants to enable one of them, however, they'd better include the
layers that provide the deps :)
