Bind 9.14.1 will not build on OpenBSD 6.5 (amd64)

I have begun work on upgrading a group of OpenBSD boxes that are used at a
bunch of small sites as a "network services" processor and gateway.. The
existing boxes are mostly running some version of 9.12, though one is
running a 9.11.Aside from the usual "version-ites" problems, this has been
a largely mechanical "turn the crank and let the scripts run" process.

EXCEPT for Bind. The biuld process keeps failing when it gets down far
enough to trying to compile isc/lib/rwlock.c which fails miserably.. Using
the "out of the box" gcc compiler generates the following:

--- snip ---
gcc -std=gnu99  -I/opt/src/bind-9.14.1 -I../.. -I./unix/include
-I./pthreads/include  -I./include  -I./include
-I/opt/src/bind-9.14.1/lib/dns/include  -I../../lib/dns/include
-I/usr/include      -g -O2 -pthread -I /usr/local/include

-W -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wcast-qual -Wwrite-strings -Wformat
-Wpointer-arith -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks  -c
rwlock.c

--- snip ---

After looking, I found that the ./configure had selected the default gcc (
4.2.1 ) which is old. I have since retried this with both clang (7.0.1) and
egcc (8.3.0) with similar, but slightly more illuminating results.

While I'm not much of a C programmer, the problem appears to be in the "new
code" that was added between 9.12.4-P1 (which  builds fine on this same
platform) and the 9.14 version.

--- snip from rwlock.c ---
#if defined(_MSC_VER)
# include <intrin.h>
# define isc_rwlock_pause() YieldProcessor()
#elif defined(__x86_64__)
# include <immintrin.h>
# define isc_rwlock_pause() _mm_pause()
#elif defined(__i386__)
--- snip ---

Since I know you are going to ask, I'm trying to use the following
configure:

CC=/usr/bin/cc ./configure --prefix=/usr/local \
--sbindir=/usr/local/sbin \
--bindir=/usr/local/sbin \
--libdir=/usr/local/lib \
--includedir=/usr/local/include \
--mandir=/usr/local/share/man \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--enable-shared \
--enable-static  \
--with-openssl=/usr \
--with-python=/usr/local/bin/python \
--with-libxml2 \
--with-libjson \
--without-readline \
--without-protobuf-c \
--without-libfstrm \
--with-lmdb \
--disable-dnstap \
--with-dlopen=no

I have tried this with variations on this theme ( with libtool, etc.).

Your thoughts will be appreciated.
