It should be a build tool. It is used during buildkernel and
installworld, causing upgrades to break every so often (especially
when upgrading across a libc version bump, IIRC).
BTW, if you just need to ensure that a file exists, a safe alternative
to 'touch ${FILE}' is ':>>${FILE}'. Makefiles in src/sys/modules
which use touch should probably be updated to use this instead.
