Do not add bogus macros to CFLAGS.

Some ports cannot be built with devel/ncurses because "pkgconf --cflags
ncurses" adds "-D_BSD_TYPES -D__BSD_VISIBLE -D_POSIX_C_SOURCE=200112L
-D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600" to CFLAGS via configure scripts.  This may cause conflicts
with ports' own CFLAGS and/or CPPFLAGS.  For example, see bug 211973, comment
22.  Actually, I found these flags are archaic from 5.x era and even harmful
for all supported releases.  I also verified that it generates the same
binaries and works fine without the CFLAGS.
