Thanks Zac!

I'm affraid it has to do with the bsdflags thing not being built in
prefix, yet.  The reason why is that on my FreeBSD install I didn't get
this error, neither did I find any problem with not having that extra
thing being built.  It is on my todo-list to find out what the
implications of not having it on BSD actually means...
