(I know there's USEPROC already, by the way, but wanted to make sure
to exclude /proc from the base tarball, there's no point in having
anything /proc-related in the base tarball, I guess.)

Please find attached a patch which implements this. I didn't test it
much, I can only tell you it's possible to create a base.tgz on
kfreebsd-amd64 once it's applied, and with this configuration:
| USEPROC=no
| USEDEVFS=yes
| USEDEVPTS=no

I've also successfully built some packages of mine (which were failing
with USEDEVFS=no, because of at least missing /dev/null).

It's probably not perfect, but that should help people interested in
trying out package building on GNU/kFreeBSD, until a clean solution is
implemented.

Mraw,
KiBi.
