I've now re-tried by trying to use the pkgsrc LLVM version 9, and
the build fails the same way as when the internal LLVM version 9
is to be used.  So ... this appears to be a regression for
NetBSD/powerpc between LLVM version 8 and version 9.  Hints for
how to chase this down would be much appreciated.
