 The issue here is that the .POSIX target will not have its effect
 until the makefile containing it is read. /usr/share/mk/sys.mk is the
 first file read. make(1) doesn't know about anything that you have set
 in your makefile yet.
 
 I have no idea if that is a bug or feature. What do the standards say
 (if anything)?
