 A similar problem was reported by Chavdar Ivanov in pkgsrc-users@...
 ...but on NetBSD/amd64 -current^[0] (so, maybe it is not just an aarch64
 problem!)
 
 At least on a not-so-current NetBSD/amd64 machine (8.99.25) and
 all packages updated to today pkgsrc-current I can't reproduce it
 (webkit-gtk build, install and run fine).
 
 Always in [0] Greg pointed out that similar problems can be due
 symbolic links, so probably worth to check:
 
  - Where pkgsrc tree is stored?
  - What is it used for WRKOBJDIR?
 
 (In my case the pkgsrc tree is on a /usr ffs and WRKOBJDIR is in
 a tmpfs.)
 
 
 Thanks!
