I don't remember seeing it (and I think I see most things sent to
freebsd-current). Besides, you should know that I wouldn't like it :-).
I also objected to __FreeBSD__ and BSD (not the system, but the identifier
in <sys/param.h> :-).

unifdef is not very suitable for anything except output to /dev/null. It
doesn't even understand `#if expression'.
