FreeBSD 6.0 has memmem().
And anything older than that no longer matters?
I look at is as so. 6.0 is 19.5 years old as it is.
That may indeed be true (6.0 was from Nov 2005), but if that is the
reason why we simply lose NO_MEMMEM (instead of conditionally losing
for 6.0 and newer), that needs to be explained in the proposed log
message, together with the reason why we no longer do anything
special with version "4.x" (which could be "We ditch the support for
anything older than 6.0").
Assuming that our stance is "anything older than 6.0 no longer
matters", the patch itself looks good.
This was my intent. I'll update the commit message.
