Yes, this is because the FreeBSD driver toolchain shares the same
infrastructure with Linux. So we stat ~200 linux dirs :(

This rys.vlakno.cz/~rdivacky/freebsd-driver.patch proof of concept
patch fixes it by unsharing FreeBSD from Linux but I am not
convinced it's worth it.

It should also be possible to only stat those libs when -m32/-m64
is specified. That would be the preferred solution.
