 Not only has this not been fixed, it's spread:

 % grep -l 'LORDER.*=.*echo' pkgtools/bootstrap-mk-files/files/mods/*.mk
 pkgtools/bootstrap-mk-files/files/mods/FreeMiNT.sys.mk
 pkgtools/bootstrap-mk-files/files/mods/GNUkFreeBSD.sys.mk
 pkgtools/bootstrap-mk-files/files/mods/Haiku.sys.mk
 pkgtools/bootstrap-mk-files/files/mods/IRIX.sys.mk
 pkgtools/bootstrap-mk-files/files/mods/Linux.sys.mk
 pkgtools/bootstrap-mk-files/files/mods/Minix.sys.mk
 pkgtools/bootstrap-mk-files/files/mods/QNX.sys.mk

 Since the invocation is $(CC) `$(LORDER) $(OBJS) | $(TSORT)` this will
 work and produce a spurious ordering half the time, and fail the other
 half. (And fail always if tsort demands two entries per line, as ours
 doesn't but I think it's entitled to.)

 Unless TSORT is set to cat; this is the case for QNX but nothng else.

 Unfortunately, there's a user of tsort that uses it for something
 other than lorder output; pkgtools/cdpack uses it to sort dependency
 lists. Setting TSORT to cat will break that... so I'm not sure how to
 proceed.
