Hi,

A small bit of advice:

- The extra libraries could be linked statically instead of providing them
as packages.  This solves the libavl API conflict.
- The alloca and __unused hacks could be done via CFLAGS (other packages
of FreeBSD code do this IIRC)
- Instead of embedding strlcpy() you can use the one in libbsd.
