Thank you for your research. I have not tried reproducing it (I do 
recall being able to build pdns 4 on freebsd 10 a few weeks ago without 
this patch though), but I notice that 
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=211147 somehow manages 
without. Do you have any idea why? I’m happy to upstream your patch, 
of course (note that filing a Pull Request on github is the best way for 
this) but I’d like to understand why we see this difference between 
different people building it.

Kind regards,
