Does "make info" also show this?

So now it is properly compiling sysbsd and not system?

If you just run gmake in the netbsd directory, the compiler should  
automatically use the newly compiled system unit. But there seems to  
be something fishy with your gmake, given that it's omitting command  
line parameters and not detecting the compiler version number  
correctly. Which version of gmake is it? Maybe using the -d or -p  
options of gmake may shed some light on what it's detecting and doing.
