With this and Jonathan's xdiff patch git compiles without warnings on
NetBSD, aside from this:

    imap-send.c: In function 'ssl_socket_connect':
    imap-send.c:310: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from
pointer target type
    imap-send.c:312: warning: assignment discards qualifiers from
pointer target type

I don't see a sane way around that[1], since it appears the NetBSD
people have patched openssl's function definitions without bumping the
OpenSSL version number. Either that or OpenSSL itself changed from
const char* to char* to const char* again, I didn't investigate that.

But tests on NetBSD with /bin/sh still fail since we use cd -P, but we
have unapplied patches for that so I didn't pursue it:

1. We could check for __NetBSD__ and the NetBSD version, but it's not
   worthwhile for a single warning.
