I've just run "bootstrap" without changing anything, followed by a
"bmake install".

It fails with:

On OpenBSD 6.7

# arch -s
amd64

# uname -m
amd64

# uname -p
amd64

# sysctl hw.machine
hw.machine=amd64

I started using pkgsrc on OpenBSD in July, so I don't know whether it
worked previously; but the arch was definitely "am64" on previous
versions too.
