The above output was after running "./bootstrap" without setting any option.

"arch -s" is the problem. It outputs "amd64" and it's transformed by
"bootstrap" into "x86_64" by "amd64/*) abi=64  machine_arch=x86_64
;;", and you end up with "package `digest-20190127' was built for a
platform: pkg_add: OpenBSD/amd64 6.7 (pkg) vs. OpenBSD/x86_64 6.7
(this host)".
