This system came out of storage. I was quite sure it wasn't anything near current (probably NetBSD 7?? maybe built as i386??).
I was able to build an installable iso and reinstalled over the existing disk configuration.

Seems I don't know either.
If you really want to run current and not 10, you'll have to build all
your own packages.
I thought that is what I was doing.
This line causes me some confusion:
pkg_add: NetBSD/x86_64 10.99.11 (pkg) vs. NetBSD/i386 10.99.11 (this host)
Ithink this is telling me that the package that gets built running make is compiled as i386. It does build the package /usr/pkg/packages/All/LuaJIT2-2.0.5nb2.tgz.
I don't understand why it thinks this host is i386? Instead of amd64 or x86_64.
