Okay, I'm almost there -- ksysguard compiles, but I'm still missing
one critical step:  the linking step.

My question is how to link libkinfo only for DFly, so that I don't cause
'lib not found' errors for FreeBSD, which doesn't have libkinfo.

I have tried to follow the logic of how the upstream developers solve
this problem -- and it seems the long-term solution would be to treat
DFly as a separate OS instead of a flavor of FreeBSD.  But doing that
is still way beyond what I know how to do.

So, is there any easier way to make the linker flags conditional on
which OS we are?
