It should work.  It works here:

building static egacy library
ranlib libegacy.a
sh /usr/src/tools/install.sh -C -o root -g wheel -m 444   libegacy.a /home/ru/obj/usr/src/i386/legacy/usr/lib

Note the difference: it uses "sh /usr/src/tools/install.sh" as
a replacement for install(1) which in effect strips out options
like -o and -g.

Work around: take out "INSTALL= install -C" from /etc/make.conf.

Solution: file a PR so I can deal with this later, by fixing
src/Makefile.inc1 appropriately.
