:    Hmm.  Maybe the solution is to modify 'uname' to report 'FreeBSD' if
:    there is an environmental override.  Then the ports build could set
:    the environment variable temporarily.  Maybe something like FAKE_OSNAME.

    Well, this is interesting... there is no need to modify uname, it
    already uses environment overrides callde UNAME_<blah>.

    % setenv UNAME_s Fubar
    % uname -s
    Fubar

    I think this is our temporary solution to the ports issues.
