Releng/11.1 is cast in stone; as I understand it, only security fixes
can get merged into release branches, so the fix I did that added
WITH/WITHOUT_LINT isn't on that branch and never will be. That means
lint has to exist on the build system. If your build system is 11-
stable, then add WITH_LINT=yes to your /etc/src.conf, build and install
world, then that 11-stable system should be able to build the releng
branch. Unfortunately, no such option exists for people trying to build
on 12, because lint was removed completely (although it might be
possible to install a lint port, I'm not sure about that).
