can't build tip (20110516-2327) on freebsd 7.3-stable

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download and unpack inferno-20100120.tgz followed by hg pull -u
2. set SYSHOST=FreeBSD, OBJTYPE=386 in mkconfig
3. ./makemk.sh
4. env PATH=/usr/inferno/FreeBSD/386/bin:$PATH mk nuke
5. env PATH=/usr/inferno/FreeBSD/386/bin:$PATH mk install

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It compiles a bunch of stuff okay, but dies at

(cd 5a; mk  install)
mk: 'install' is up to date
(cd 5c; mk  install)

I *think* I stumbled on the same issue: boehm-gc's gc.h is found when 
./utils/*c/gc.h should (was installed on my system via pkgsrc - DragonFlyBSD 
host - could it be so in your case ?).

The dirty fix was to update utils/[58kqv]c/mkfile as such:

--- a/utils/5c/mkfile   Tue Mar 22 09:30:40 2011 +0100
+++ b/utils/5c/mkfile   Wed May 25 09:54:46 2011 +0200
@@ -32,7 +32,7 @@
        mk $MKFLAGS clean

+       $CC -I. $CFLAGS ../cc/$stem.c

 #enam.c:       5.out.h
 #      rc mkenam

I didn't bother fixing it in a better way.

That fix worked for me.  Thanks!

all the host mkfiles (in /mkfile) should force -I. before anything else, except 
perhaps on Nt. as it is, things like /usr/local/include (amongst others) will 
be used before the current directory, which seems wrong to me. i'm only 
surprised it has taken so long to get a clash.

i changed the relevant ?c/mkfile
it might have been better to change mkone-* or mkfiles/mkfile-* but this 
smaller change seems adequate.
