You would likely need to apply many of the changes made in 10.
IIRC stable/9 has just enough bmake support to be able to build/install
bmake itself, so that ports can use it.

I'm not sure how many people would appreciate making such changes to
stable/9 at this point.

Why not use fmake in that scenario?
