Darwin edmonds.home.lan 15.2.0 Darwin Kernel Version 15.2.0: Fri Nov 13 19:56:56 PST 2015; root:xnu-3248.20.55~2/RELEASE_X86_64 x86_64 i386 Macmini6,2 Darwin

>Description:
Bootstrapping a new pkgsrc installation, the bootstrap command would fail during the very first pkg_add. pkg_add would complain that the package was built for a different architecture than it is being installed on.

(This turned out to be a confusion between i386 [architecture] and x86_64 [binary format]).
>How-To-Repeat:
Simply run ./bootstrap --prefix=/opt/pkg --varbase=/var (just "./bootstrap" would likely do, too)
>Fix:
I think this is the right thing to do. Since "uname -p" always returns i386 on Darwin (but "uname -m" returns the actual machine architecture), one cannot rely on the output of "uname -p" if it is to be compared to the ouput of "uname -m" later.

Once I made this simple change to the bootstrap script, I was able to bootstrap my new pkgsrc installation.

 Better approach (untested):
