This is a follow up on this pull request.

Since DragonFly 4.6.1 (this commit), the kern.proc.pathname
sysctl works correctly, i.e. it does not return paths including a :
(see here). Use it and don't try to fix old versions of DragonFly!
There are not many DragonFly installations out there that we can't
control and no one is compiling Rust from source. If someone wants to
run Rust on a pre-4.6.1 DragonFly system, the ports system should
provide a patch.
