$(IMAGES_DIR)/%.img:    $(SRC_PATH)/tests/vm/% \

So netbsdb.img should have been rebuilt when tests/vm/netbsd was
touched. However maybe the packages have been updated upstream since? As
we also have:

                        $(SRC_PATH)/tests/vm/basevm.py \
                        $(SRC_PATH)/tests/vm/Makefile.include

I suspect the genisoimage change to basevm triggered a re-build grabbing
the latest packages.
