Just a note.  In my reply on that list, I made the
following offer:

     If other freebsd developers do not object to the *idea*
     of these changes, I would be willing to look at installing
     similar changes to FreeBSD, after NetBSD has worked with
     them for a little while.

So, speak up if the proposal strikes you as a bad idea.
(also note that I'm perfectly happy for someone else to
do this work on freebsd's make, if anyone wants to)
