Ah!  It didn't occur to me that it might be related to some
setting in my mk.conf.  I use

  SU_CMD=sudo -H -u root sh -c

I removed that line (so using su) and the ${LIBTOOL} problem goes
away.  The problem of packages saying just 'pax', does not go
away; I still need to change $${PATH} to ${PATH} to fix that.

Well, now that you've pointed out the obvious, I'm not sure the
problem doesn't exist on NetBSD, too.  I haven't had a NetBSD
system to test on in quite some time, though.
