 Original problem (build failure of pkgsrc/checkperms) is fixed.
 Thank you.
 
 By the way, the following code from /usr/share/mk/bsd.own.mk is
 irrelevant for current situation, because sysctl hw.machine_arch
 returns earmv6, and it has no *hf* string. 
 Please fit to current situation.
 
 .if ${MACHINE_ARCH} == "mips64eb" || ${MACHINE_ARCH} == "mips64el" || \
     (${MACHINE_CPU} == "arm" && ${MACHINE_ARCH:M*hf*} == "") || \
     ${MACHINE_ARCH} == "coldfire" || \
     ${MACHINE} == "emips"
 MKSOFTFLOAT?=   yes
 .endif
 
 Thank you.
