I noticed that when we build libraries for a different ABI (in CheriBSD) we
were calling ${XCC}/${LD} --version for every directory. It turns out that
this was caused by bsd.compat.mk explicitly setting (X_)COMPILER variables
for that build stage and this stops the _can_export logic from working.
To fix this, we change the check to only set _can_export=no if the variable
is set and it is set to a different value than the cached value.
This noticeably speeds up the tree walk while building compat libraries.
