LIBC is defined and needed by the bsd.hostprog.mk (or bsd.prog.mk).

Updating and redoing bootstrap should fix that. See 
pkgsrc/bootstrap/bmake/mk/bsd.prog.mk revision 1.2:

  Do not define LIBC and other LIB* settings. This should fix
  problem with building on systems that don't have the
  /usr/lib/libc.a (LIBC).

  This is the log entry from mk-files 20051104:
          * prog.mk: remove all the LIBC?= junk, use
          .-include libnames.mk instead (none by default).

  Note this is not an exact copy of the mk-files 20051104 prog.mk.
  (Todo: compare and test all the mk files with sjg's version.)
