No. Unless you include the correct sys.mk, you won't get the library
path correct since the 2.2.* versions of sys.mk don't know about
/usr/lib/aout. Patching src/Makefile to allow for differences in versions
of sys.mk seems the wrong thing to do. If people don't like using the -m
argument, then the top level makefile should not use anything from sys.mk.
