I have used essentially the same patch (with ${LDFLAGS} instead of
-static) for a year or two, but I don't quite understand why you needed
it. make_keys and make_hash are build-tools, so they should get built
in the host environment and be linked to the host shared libraries (if
any). The command line seems to show them being built in the target
environment (-I/usr/obj/c/src/alpha/usr/include). The -mcpu stuff
also seems to be a problem (but not here). I think we use the new
bsd.cpu.mk even for building tools. It might not work on old hosts.
