This is a bug in libarchive, could you raise it as an issue against:

  https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/issues

That way it will fix any package pulling in libarchive, not just
pkgin.  The fix should be straight-foward, e.g.:

  --- a/archivers/libarchive/files/libarchive/archive.h
  +++ b/archivers/libarchive/files/libarchive/archive.h
  @@ -31,6 +31,7 @@
   #include <sys/stat.h>
   #include <stddef.h>  /* for wchar_t */
   #include <stdio.h> /* For FILE * */
  +#include <time.h> /* for time_t */

   /*
    * Note: archive.h is for use outside of libarchive; the configuration

Thanks,
