Yep, you did.  A typical NFS setup maps all filesystem accesses by
"root" to "nobody", for security reasons.

I'd expect that the access is granted if you change the ownership of
/usr/pkgsrc/distfiles:

chown nobody /usr/pkgsrc/distfiles
chown 65534 /usr/pkgsrc/distfiles   # if the above doesn't work
chown root /usr/pkgsrc/distfiles    # restore it
