How clean is "clean tree"?  I'm simply performing a non-update build
into objdir last populated by a previous update build (w/o HAVE_GCC=7).

I'm getting the following failure (amd64-8.0_STABLE host):

[...]
--- cleandir-external ---
--- cleandir-lib ---
cleandir ===> external/bsd/pkg_install/lib
[...]
--- cleandir-external ---
nbmake[7]: "/x/current/src/external/bsd/pkg_install/lib/../Makefile.inc" line 16: Malformed conditional (defined(HAVE_GCC) && ${HAVE_GCC} == 7 && ${ACTIVE_CC} == "gcc")
[...]

I see a number of Makefile* files with this idiom, but this is the only
one it's tripping on (so far).  I don't see what it thinks is malformed
about it.  Manually nuking the affected objdir sub-tree doesn't affect
the result.
