Hello!

The issue ist that Joyents pkgsrc's bootstrap
does not recognize the system as 64bit
and therefore sticks to 32 bit (?).

Thanks that you clarifed my system is 64 bit.

I think i have to ask the people at pgsrc at joyent then..
i hope this weekend i can try this on a fresh install on a vm with 
2018.10 :-)

Thanks!
