<upd_detl>The word "empty" does not appear in eijiro's glosses, this seems to me like an inclusion of an unmarked [lit] gloss. This is JAPN101 material, everyone should know this anyway...

I agree with eijiro on "get" vs "become".  Compare google of:

"He became hungry" site:x.com
"He got hungry" site:x.com

"I'm getting hungry" site:x.com  (infinity hits)
"I'm becoming hungry" site:x.com  (two hits)

English has "on an empty stomach", but there's no special relation between that idiom this [exp]. 

In case you object, I won't rush ahead and change all the entries myself, but I'd recommend changing:
腹が減る to become hungry -&gt; to get hungry
お腹が減る to become hungry -&gt; to get hungry
腹が空く　to become hungry; to get an empty stomach -&gt; to get hungry
小腹が空く to become a little hungry; to become a bit peckish -&gt; to get a little hungry; to get a bit peckish</upd_detl>
