For some reason this isn't the bootstrap prefix that is being used to 
install packages, they are using $HOME/pkg.  Did you change the prefix 
after bootstrap or something?

Look at the different targets in these two lines:

> /bin/install -c -s -o klu -g klu -m 755 digest /cygdrive/c/Users/klu/work/pkgsrc/pkgtools/digest/work/.destdir/cygdrive/c/Users/klu/pkg/bin/digest
> ERROR:         /cygdrive/c/Users/klu/work/pkgsrc/pkgtools/digest/work/.destdir/cygdrive/c/Users/klu/.local/bin/digest

The prefix is hardcoded into tools at bootstrap time, so if you decide 
later that you want to change it you need to remove everything and do a 
fresh bootstrap, and also ensure that you clean out any old work areas 
and packages.
