Hmm, even when I removed /usr/obj/usr/src/lib/csu entirely and then did a 
buildworld
NO_CLEAN=yes recently /bin/sh was not relinked, though perhaps at that point
libc already thought it was up-to-date relative to <sys/param.h> from the 
previous
build.

I think the detour via assembly + sed is what breaks the dependency chain.
FWIW, I found that on at least MIPS with clang I did not need the SED_FIX_NOTE
hack.
