Success, mostly anyways. I tried copying and pasting above into a file 
(/tmp/patch) and using patch < /tmp/patch from usr/src. It failed to 
apply, so I just manually edited file, removed OBJS= line and added the 
comment and LDFLAGS+= line. ran make clean in usr/src/stand and then 
from usr/src ran make -DNO_CLEAN buildworld, then buildinstall 
completed. Don't know if email client added a special character that 
screwed up patch or I just did it wrong, but the fix appears to have 
worked.
