OpenBSD's default for OBJECT_FMT?



pkgsrc's bsd.prefs.mk has

.if ${OPSYS} == "OpenBSD"
.  if defined(ELF_TOOLCHAIN) && ${ELF_TOOLCHAIN} == "yes"
OBJECT_FMT?=    ELF
.  else
OBJECT_FMT?=    a.out
.  endif


now it seems that ELF_TOOLCHAIN is not set anywhere, so OBJECT_FMT on OpenBSD defaults to a.out, which is wrong in many cases (stumbled across it on a stock OpenBSD 4.4 i386 installation). How is the object format selection mechanism supposed to work on OpenBSD?
