It coulod be part of the TOOLS section of world. Install a kld for
the purpose of buildworld and use it. It would prevent people from
building world on machines with securelevel >= 2, though, and that's
bad.

Nevertheless, since this particular target would only be compiled to
deal with this kind of nasty changes, and would not be required most
of the time, it sounds reasonable to me.
