I'm still having a few problems with the machine/ include issue.  Your patch 
seems generally to help with the build portion of the show, but I noticed that 
the configure parts to detect uma.h now fail, due to uma.h depending in 
machine/ includes itself:

   checking for vm/vnode_pager.h... yes
   checking for vm/uma.h... no
   checking whether byte order is known at compile time... yes

This would seem to occur because the machine symlink isn't set up in time for 
configure to use it:

   | #include <vm/vm_zone.h>

   configure:10666: $? = 1
   configure: failed program was:
   | /* confdefs.h.  */

That leads to config.h no longer knowing about uma.h:

   @@ -1395,7 +1395,7 @@
    #define HAVE_VIS_H 1

    /* Define to 1 if you have the <vm/uma.h> header file. */
   -#define HAVE_VM_UMA_H 1
   +/* #undef HAVE_VM_UMA_H */

    /* Define to 1 if you have the <vm/vm_extern.h> header file. */
    #define HAVE_VM_VM_EXTERN_H 1

In practice, things build anyway as some or another include must do a nested 
include of uma.h, but it still suggests the approach isn't quite right yet. 
How should we be setting up configure's kernel build environment?
