 Thanks for reporting the bug.
 
 My doctrine for what is a pkgsrc bug vs an upstream bug is: If you build
 upstream's release, following their instructions, does it work
 correctly?  If so, and the pacakge does not, it's a pkgsrc bug.  But if
 not, it's an upstream bug.  pkgsrc does add fixes for upstream bugs, but
 we ask that such bugs be filed upstream and the bug URL be included in
 the package.
 
 Currently the pkgsrc build wraps upstream by providing dependencies and
 doesn't change the code.
 
 Could you check tahoe built from upstream sources?  A quick read of the
 sources indicates that it just assumes the presumably-Linux location.
 
 It seem like upstream should somehow either search for moduli, or have a
 mapping from OS to path.  pkgsrc supports many operating systems, so
 patching to NetBSD's location isn't a reasonable answer.
