pkgsrc is generally the best option - there are a quite a few binary
packages for NetBSD-6 in
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amiga/6.0/All/

For example
pkg_add 
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/packages/NetBSD/amiga/6.0/All/curl-7.28.1nb1.tgz
Will download and install curl, plus any needed dependencies from the
same location

You might find pkgin useful - its a apt-get/yum like tool for NetBSD
(which automates the install of packages from the above).

Plus you can always build from src via pkgsrc :)
