Sigh, it looks like a lot of module building scripts are broken. :(

The problem is that in r232322, bsd.own.mk and bsd.sys.mk were updated,
to support the new WITH_CLANG_IS_CC setting.  This causes the macro
MK_CLANG_IS_CC to be defined.

However, this only works if Makefiles include the updated bsd.*.mk files
from your source directory, not if they include the old bsd.*.mk files
from /usr/share/mk.  Or at least, if you didn't already run "make
installworld" to update those .mk files.

As I said to somebody else who reported a similar problem, I can put a
workaround in kmod.mk and kern.mk, so that this incorrect way of module
building seems to work.  But it is still fundamentally broken.

Alternatively, I can put a message in there, which tells you to either
run make installworld, or use make buildenv before building the module(s).
