I'm hoping it's significantly similar. :-)

Older Darwins don't have a suitable BUILDLINK_SHELL built in. Currently, 
to get around this, we have shells/bash2 and all of its dependencies 
unbuildlinked.

pdksh has a much simpler build process and no dependencies. If it proves 
workable as a BUILDLINK_SHELL on Darwin, we can return to using 
buildlink2 with bash, gettext-lib, libiconv, and libtool-base.

Haven't seen that on NetBSD 1.6 or Darwin 5.5. If you can't determine 
what caused it, please send-pr.
