 Because those mk-files are potentially way out of date for netbsd.
 
 Best bet would be to update bmake in pkgsrc to a later version that
 doesn't have this issue.
 
 The switch from the original pkgsrc bootstrap bmake to importing the
 source into devel/bmake/files was to avoid the hassles caused by pkgsrc
 having a bmake that was several years out of date.
 
 The version in devel/bmake is currently 20051105, that's a year old.
