Huh?  Why is this running autoconf's configure *and* running NetBSD's
${MKDEP} (aka "nbhost-mkdep")!?  In src/tools, you do a "configure"-based
compile and a "make" on the generated tree, OR a BSD-Makefile compile, but
not both on the same program.

That much aside, nbhost-mkdep should never be passed -nostdinc++.
nbhost-mkdep is used specifically by BSD-Makefile based stuff in src/tools,
and I believe src/tools/Makefile.inc has the definitions for overriding how
DESTDIR and MKDEP work for dependencies.
