So log as you:

* don't set USETOOLS=yes explicitly in mk.conf

* don't put the source tree of this third party package under NetBSD's
  `src' tree

you'll use the installed compiler.  The default for USETOOLS is `no' outside
of the tree or when building kerbels, and `yes' when building inside a
complete `src' tree.  This magic is in <bsd.own.mk>.

Right, but as I said, I don't know whether this would harm people too.  It's
my gut feeling that it'd be better to turn off everything guarded by
BSD_PKG_MK in mk.conf, but I wonder if that might exclude some compile
options that the builder may actually want.
