So I did some more testing by making a short Makefile trying to test
how bmake handles the OBJECT_FMT in
/usr/pkgsrc/devel/bmake/files/mk/own.mk. Please see the following
command line output.
```
yeeloong-netbsd# /home/pbulk/sandbox
# pwd
/
# cat /tmp/Makefile
.if exists(/usr/libexec/ld.elf_so)
OBJECT_FMT=ELF
.endif
OBJECT_FMT?=a.out
all:
@echo ${OBJECT_FMT}
# /usr/pbulk/bin/bmake -f /tmp/Makefile
ELF
```
So it seems that bmake should have properly set ${OBJECT_FMT} to "ELF", but
somehow in "/usr/pkgsrc/mk/check/check-shlibs.mk" it's value is no
longer "ELF"? Would be great if someone could shed some light here.
