Not that I was aware.  That isn't to say we shouldn't be nuking
-Dpmax and -Dhp300, etc., but __pmax__ and __arc__ aren't how
NetBSD ports currently supply the machine type at kernel build
time.

I.e. if we going to change it, pick something reasonable (which I think
__pmax__ and __arc__ are NOT) and change all ports at once.
