I'm not following.  netbsd-10 is a branch.   There are release tags at
places long that branch, e.g. for src/Makefile:
        netbsd-10-1-RELEASE: 1.335.2.1
        netbsd-10-0-RELEASE: 1.335.2.1
        netbsd-10-0-RC6: 1.335.2.1
        netbsd-10-0-RC5: 1.335.2.1
        netbsd-10-0-RC4: 1.335.2.1
        netbsd-10-0-RC3: 1.335.2.1
        netbsd-10-0-RC2: 1.335.2.1
        netbsd-10-0-RC1: 1.335

Any build of the netbsd-10 branch past netbsd-10-1-RELEASE will identify
(uname) as 10.1_STABLE.  This does not represent specific sources.  It
is merely "built from the netbsd-10 bench after 10.1".  All of my hosts
track release branches, and I generally update every month or two along
the branch.  But this is unlikely to be related.

That then is a bug in pybind11, either the upstream or the package.
That's not surprising; this sort of bug is quite common.  And, they tend
not to get noticed or fixed by most pkgsrc people because they build via
pbulk instead of updating live systems, and pbulk only installs declared
dependencies.
