It's a build time dependency for tests to be built (and thus run), today. Fo= r groups that need to backport test infrastructure to previous releases like= 9.x, introducing instability by bringing in bmake is a non-starter as makin= g bmake work when running buildworld pulls in a lot of external dependencies= . I agreed to bmake a year ago because I was operating under the impression th= at my work was going to make it into head before now and that parties involv= ed with that effort would have been more active working with me trying to ge= t things to function. > The only place where bmake is used is in the NetBSD src tree to build > the tests... This is unfortunately an incorrect statement. bsd.test.mk requires bsd.progs= .mk, which only works with bmake. Similarly atf.test.mk uses bmake only idio= ms. I've conditionalized out this support on another it branch and will submit i= t for inclusion into FreeBSD once my tests are done. > so: unless you want to copy verbatim the bsd.test.mk from > NetBSD and the various Makefiles from src/tests/ into FreeBSD, there > shouldn't be any issue.

I monkeypatched things to work with FreeBSD on my git branch. Thanks!
