If you look at these two files, you will discover that
/usr/include/machine is derived on 386 based BSD from
/usr/src/i86/include

looking in that directory you will see that spl.h is n longer present.
therefore you have a left-over file..
these were felt to be machine independent defines and moved elsewhere.
(i.e. systm.h)

I hope that solves the mystery :)
