I’d even started making some changes, generating patch files and such without any problems.  But I haven’t worked on this since and decided to try getting back to it.  In the meantime I’d updated to NetBSD 7.0.1, upgraded all my installed packages and the sources I’m trying to work with here were also updated.  So I was forced to start all over when I ran into the current problem.


You need to add
USE_TOOLS+=gmake
to the pkgsrc Makefile, since the program's Makefile only supports GNU make.

It will fail to link because NetBSD does not provide rfork().
