For some reason, the defs.NetBSD.mk section appears to be skipped.

For example on NetBSD/amiga 1.5.x I did in converters/libiconv

make show-var VARNAME=CONFIGURE_ENV
make show-var VARNAME=_OPSYS_MAX_CMDLEN

And both didn't show the maximum command line length. So I commented out
the checks for GNU_CONFIGURE and USE_LIBTOOL and the commands above worked
to show the values.

Maybe I am supposed to use some PHASE setting to make show-var work
correctly?

Maybe I'll try pkgtools/autoswc.

This system is so slow at the ./configure (but okay when compiling) it is
hard to wait around for testing.
