The Makefile says:
# $NetBSD: Makefile,v 1.34 2024/08/25 06:18:58 wiz Exp $
PKGNAME=                swi-prolog-lite-${SWIPLVERS}
PKGREVISION=            3

and Makefile.common says:
SWIPLVERS=              8.0.2

This should be from pkgsrc-2024Q3.

I've tried "make package" on NetBSD/amd64, but there the build fails with
epic error spew at
[ 74%] Building C object packages/ssl/CMakeFiles/plugin_ssl4pl.dir/ssl4pl.c.o
with _lots_ of "this is deprecated" warnings and finally a bunch of errors
that indicate bitrot (boiling down to "you are trying to use _really_ old
stuff from the ssl libs"). Not surprised, given that pkgsrc has version 8.0.2
(upstream indicates release on Tue Mar 5 13:19:09 2019) and upstream at
https://www.swi-prolog.org/download/stable/src/ is currently at 9.2.9:
swipl-9.2.9.tar.gz

The current version 9.2.9 blows up _much_ earlier due to what looks like
mismatched assumptions about networking APIs for IPv6.
