Thanks; USE_ST_TIMESPEC part is a nice companion patch to 9140804
(Makefile: turn on USE_ST_TIMESPEC for FreeBSD, 2009-03-22).

I cannot tell if "#define _NETBSD_SOURCE 1" has a potential to regress
things to existing NetBSD users with releases different from yours, so I
need to ask some help here.

Any objection from people who runs older NetBSD?

Similar to other BSD variants, it needs USE_ST_TIMESPEC.
