weird "/usr/pkg/COMMAND" error messages

["Joel CARNAT" <joel%carnat.net@localhost>]

Hello,

I have weird error messages on my 4.99.72/macppc machine that are not
there on my 4.99.72/i386. Both system are from the same NetBSD-daily
snapshot and are using the same pkgsrc HEAD source tree (shared via NFS).

For example, on the macppc, I can see:
pkg_create: can't stat `/usr/pkg/mkdir: unknown option -- -'

See attached file for full output.

It's not always the same command failing.
Most packages compile and are packaged fine.
Only a few have errors.
I have tried cvs up my pkgsrc directory, cleaning the pkgwork directory
and reboot the machine (to clean memory) but the error come at the same
place every time.

Any idea what's happening ?

TIA,
    Jo
