This is based on the decision The NetBSD Foundation made in 2008 to
do so, which was already applied to src.
This change has been applied to code which is likely not in other
repositories.

packages to strip installed executables. If INSTALL_UNSTRIPPED ==
"yes", then we create a "strip" wrapper in ${TOOLS_DIR} that just
calls ${TRUE} by considering ${TRUE} the system-supplied strip command.
* Get rid of an explicit check for ${_IMAKE_MAKE} == ${GMAKE} in
bsd.pkg.mk to check for whether we need to depend on gmake or not.
Instead, we now note in Linux.mk that packages that need imake will
also need to use gmake by setting _IMAKE_TOOLS+=gmake.
* Push the definition of MAKE_PROGRAM from bsd.pkg.mk into make.mk where
it's closer to related code.
to be a drop-in replacement for mk/tools.mk, but isn't yet enabled
pending further testing. To use, edit bsd.pkg.mk to include bsd.tools.mk
instead of tools.mk.
The major changes from the old tools framework are:
(1) The new interface to using the tools framework is through setting
USE_TOOLS in the package Makefile, e.g.,
USE_TOOLS+= autoconf gmake yacc
(2) Bison/yacc handling is improved. Instead of adding checks for
/usr/bin/yacc to the package Makefile and explicitly setting YACC,
e.g., security/mit-krb5/Makefile, simply add "yacc" to USE_TOOLS.
If bison is explicitly required, then add "bison" to USE_TOOLS
instead.
(3) GNU auto* tools are handled differently. "autoconf", "aclocal",
"automake", etc. will be tools in ${TOOLS_DIR} that point to the
correct versions of the auto* tools. Instead of patching Makefiles
or scripts to use ${AUTOCONF}, ${ACLOCAL}, etc., the correct
versions of the tools will be called if they are invoked simply
by their bare names. This is selected by adding either "autoconf"
or "autoconf213", or "automake" or "automake14" to USE_TOOLS.
The new tools framework will deprecate the following variables:
ACLOCAL AUTORECONF
AUTOCONF BUILD_USES_GETTEXT_M4
AUTOHEADER USE_GNU_TOOLS
AUTOMAKE USE_TBL
The new tools framework will deprecate the following *.mk files:
mk/autoconf.mk
mk/automake.mk
mk/tools.mk
Additional documentation on how to use bsd.tools.mk to create new tools
under ${TOOLS_DIR} may be found in the header comments in bsd.tools.mk.
