    I think David was just suggesting a quick hack to be sure that was the
    issue.  The real fix is to use both __FreeBSD__ and __DragonFly__
    tests in the build tools (not the entirety of the buildworld source base,
    just the parts that buildworld compiles up using the local compiler
    to generate the tools it needs to compile the rest of the world).
