I had the same thought about the BHYVE option the other day... it'd be 
useful if we BROKEN_OPTION'd it so that MK_BHYVE is accurate on 
platforms that don't support it.  The particular context where it 
would've been nice is depend-cleanup.sh, since we could've used it as a 
heuristic to nuke the errant include dirs if the option was properly 
disabled.
