 Log Message:
 Bootstrap: Fix bootstrap on FreeBSD 12.1, likely broken by an issue in lld.
 
 It looks like lld doesn't want to statically link a libarchive without
 resolving all of the symbols, even if only a few symbols are used.
 
 In order to resolve all of the symbols, we need to also link with -lmd.
 One generic way to do so is inspect Libs.private in the pkgconfig file.
 
 While pkgsrc is likely not at fault here, having a dysfunctional bootstrap
 is bad. We should check again in the future to see if this can be removed.
 
 Actually fixes PR pkg/55400.
