I think the problem is that it *doesn't* have an rpath entry.  It links 
against /usr/lib64/liblzma.so.5.2.2 during build, but then tries to use 
/usr/pkg/lib/liblzma.so.5.2.5 when it becomes available later.

The problem may be limited to cases where Yum's xz-devel is installed 
during bootstrap.  It seems to depend on the presence of lzma.h.

From pkg_install:

# grep -i lzma work/.configure_makevars.mk
H_LZMA=    /usr/include/lzma.h
H_LZMA_VERSION=    /usr/include/lzma/version.h

But I don't think setting rpath=/usr/lib64/ is a good idea, since the 
Yum xz-devel package is optional and could easily be removed without 
pkgsrc having a chance to object.  This is not like using lzma in the 
NetBSD base, which will always be there.  I'll try bootstrapping without 
Yum's xz-devel present when I have time.
