>Description:
I just tried to bootstrap a brand new AIX box. It gets pretty far
without complaining, but then, as it tries to build bmake...

I tried to install devel/patch manually but it depends in digest, which
depends in patch and they go back and forth forever.

Trying to install pkgtools/digest gives this more informative message up
front:

# cd ../../pkgtools/digest
# bmake package

>How-To-Repeat:
Try to bootstrap pkgsrc on an AIX 5.3 machine.
