NetBSD added this files to blktap lib to be able to compile it, since
Qemu needed it:

http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/~checkout~/pkgsrc/sysutils/xentools41/files/blk_netbsd.c?rev=1.1.1.1&content-type=text/plain&only_with_tag=MAIN
http://cvsweb.netbsd.org/bsdweb.cgi/~checkout~/pkgsrc/sysutils/xentools41/files/blktapctrl_netbsd.c?rev=1.1.1.1&content-type=text/plain&only_with_tag=MAIN

Removing blktap from the build process seems more logical than adding
a dummy library to the system in my opinion, and doesn't affect Qemu,
since only the init_blktap function was called.
