pmake - wrapper for bmake defaulting to NetBSD makefiles

pmake [bmake options] [variable=value] [target...]

pmake is a wrapper for bmake, a portable version of NetBSD make, providing NetBSD system makefiles by default instead of the bmake's own ones.

The pmake wrapper is meant to be used by makefiles relying on bsd.prog.mk and other makefiles provided on BSD systems by default.
