Re: kfreebsd-10 FTBFS with libbsd/0.7.0 (was: -bsd@ stuff to do during DebConf?)

Found this in the libbsd changelog for 0.7.0:

Maybe we need to avoid libbsd being used here where I think it's not
needed.  (Or I could be wrong;  maybe we ought to be using libbsd in
preference to freebsd-glue).

We may have to re-work the aic7xxx module build anyway because of these
changes underway upstream:  http://freshbsd.org/commit/freebsd/r270284

Although I think we need to keep using the older method of compiling
firmwares with aicasm to comply with the DFSG.
