If you go the Command Line Tools route you will probably also want:

  https://github.com/joyent/pkgsrc/commit/c1711e89

The current setup is incredibly pessimistic with the missing SDK, with
each Xcode command taking around 3 seconds to fail, and it appears the
negative result isn't cached in xcrun_db.  This is adding many hours
to a pbulk-scan run.

I'll commit the above diff after the freeze.
