Hello, Yes, you've found a regression caused by a code refactoring from twelve years ago that mistakenly appended rather than prepended the -m argument(s) to the search paths. I've fixed that in HEAD earlier this evening, and will request a pull-up to the netbsd-9 branch in a few days, assuming no fallout (I don't think there should be any). Thanks for reporting this.
