>Description:
NetBSD has declarations of __CTASSERT() in <sys/cdefs.h>.  We only have it in
<sys/systm.h> which is a kernel space header.  Since we are mirroring code from
NetBSD that might use __CTASSERT() in user space, e.g., vis(3), we need to add
or move __CTASSERT().
>How-To-Repeat:
n/a
>Fix:
The NetBSD code in <sys/cdefs.h> is:
/*
 * Compile Time Assertion.
 */
#ifdef __COUNTER__
#define __CTASSERT(x)		__CTASSERT0(x, __ctassert, __COUNTER__)
#else
#define __CTASSERT(x)		__CTASSERT0(x, __ctassert, __LINE__)
#endif
#define __CTASSERT0(x, y, z)	__CTASSERT1(x, y, z)
#define __CTASSERT1(x, y, z)	typedef char y ## z[(x) ? 1 : -1];
