 I believe this problem might have been fixed upstream - it appears as if
 they have replaced all uses of the XXXQ_WHATEVER() macros (from sys/queue.h)
 with their own (well, taken from NetBSD it says) versions QXXXQ_WHATEVER().
 
 That means that the _SAFE() versions of the XXXQ_FOREACH() macros are present
 now, and the problem that generated this PR should be gone.
 
 I say "should be" as I discovered this entirely from reading a diff of
 the relevant distfiles - the same pkgsrc upgrade that seems to have
 corrected this problem introduced PR 42899. so qemu remains uncompilable on
 NetBSD 4, so there's no good way to verify that this problem is in
 fact gone.
 
 Until we know for sure, I'd suggest changing this PR to be "suspended"
 (rather than closed) - once qemu compiles again, or when NetBSD 4 support
 is no longer relevant to pkgsrc, this PR can be reopened in the unlikely
 event that it hasn't been fixed, or finally closed.
