>Description:
When cross-compiling on a NetBSD/amd64 machine for a riscv64 target, building a kernel fails. The failure is always in a floating-point multiplication in a const. There are several of these in the kernel, so with -j higher than 1, you sometimes hit one or the other. For example this (with -j 1):

*** Failed target:  rngtest.o

When run with -j 4, another one of these bombs first:

/usr/src/sys/kern/kern_synch.c:1123:1: internal compiler error: Illegal instruction

I have seen the same issues when compiling for aarch64 (MACHINE=evbarm64) from amd64.
>How-To-Repeat:
On a fresh checkout of src:

$ ./build.sh -j 4 -N 1 -U -m riscv -a riscv64 tools kernel=GENERIC64
>Fix:
I would love to see a fix! This is supposed to work, no?
