I built v2.8.0-rc1 on NetBSD 9 amd64, make check passed, and
distcheck-light passed.  I do not see any real warnings, just something
about libtool and -lgcc that I don't understand yet.

Next up is trying to package the generated distfile, and running it
against a real UPS (Best Power Fortress 660) and upsc clients.
