Issue: Kernel does not compile if the in-kernel debugger (DDB) is 
disabled in a custom kernel.

Steps to recreate: Install the 7.9 sys release source code.
Edit /usr/src/sys/conf/GENERIC and comment out the first option (DDB)
Configure and compile as normal - will fail with an error when 
attempting to compile amas.c

Reason for the customer kernel:
Do not want the kernel to launch a debugger on panilc - would like the 
system to automatically reboot

You guys are amazing. Been loving OpenBSD since I first tried it in 1997 
as a kid. Thanks so much for keeping this amazing project going!

Sincerely,

Gabriel
