Not sure. It's really a fresh install and a fresh checkout.
$ cvs -q up -dPA
No issues building base. Really only driver/xf86-video-amdgpu.
Renaming the Makefile to Makefile.bsd-wrapper
$ mv /usr/xenocara/driver/xf86-video-amdgpu/Makefile \
/usr/xenocara/driver/xf86-video-amdgpu/Makefile.bsd-wrapper
# cd /usr/xenocara
# make bootstrap
# make obj
# make build
succeeds. Driver also is present in the tar.
$ ls -lah /usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/amdgpu_drv.so
-r--r--r-- 1 root bin 165K May 18 12:56
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/drivers/amdgpu_drv.so
Looking at bsd.xorg.mk, I see no reason myself why just Makefile instead
of Makefile.bsd-wrapper should not work.
