I do not have a machine running -current userland on a regular basis for a
couple of reasons, so just saying "do a make in src/tools" is more difficult
as a testcase.  My builds are mostly build.sh nbmake-wrapper based at the
moment.

The build does not fail "instantly" (which would imply that something in
src/tools/Makefile* was busted -- in fact, it was in a subdirectory!), which
is why I requested a build log as is standard procedure.  Simply noting
which *directory* it failed in would have helped considerably.
(Fortunately, you named your TOOLDIR "/usr/tools", so I dind't have to ask
the standard question to dump your mk.conf.  :)

Anyway, I was able to track it down after doing recursive greps and reading
several Makefiles.  You apparently beat me to it, but I dropped the "if"
part of the block, since it is now "mkdir -p", in rev. 1.5 of
src/tools/host-mkdep/Makefile.
