The problem I have is that I want pointyhat to build an INDEX based on
what is the current "best recommended value" of the linux emulation,
not whatever happens to be on pointyhat at the moment.  (It turns out
that right now this "Just Works" on pointyhat but only so; it does not
work on the new codebase on pointyhat-west, where a very minimal subset
of ports is installed).

Just setting LINUX_OSRELEASE at the top level didn't seem to work; it
appears the != line overrides that setting.

How about this?  We change the override to only work if PACKAGE_BUILDING
is set?
