Better yet, generate the tables explicity and don't commit them anywhere.
That should make it a no-brainer to keep them in sync and stop accidental
blockage of the flow from the kernel into libc :-).
The flow was apparently blocked by not installing includes before
building libc. syscall.mk is included from ${.CURDIR}/../../sys, but
syscall.h is included from <sys/>.
