[tlbuild] More on xz

Folks,
Looking at the error messages when compiling xz on OS X 10.4, I find
that the file /src/common/physmem.h has a call to sysctl with six
arguments, and the file /src/common/cpucores.h has a call to sysctl
with only five arguments. In the log, there is an error in the second
case complaining of a missing argument. If I add an extra NULL to the
call in the second file, the entire xz project compiles fine. Does
someone on the list know enough about sysctl to figure out the correct
fix?
(These calls are inside "#elif defined ..." sections, so they probably
aren't active for many architectures. I think that's why xz compiles
on some systems and not others.)
