 Don't do that. In addition to CFLAGS being the wrong variable (you
 wanted LIBS), setting it on the make command like like that breaks the
 pkgsrc and package logic that manipulates it and produces the build
 failure you then saw.
 
 Instead put LIBS.Darwin+= -lmd in the pkgsrc makefile.
 
 (It seems to still be "Darwin", not "MacOS"...)
