I've had exactly the same error attempting to build a fresh
bootstrap-pkgsrc on MacOS X (10.2.8, Dec2002DevTools with
Aug2003gcc331Update).

This was attempted around 1600 US/Central on Saturday, 7 February.  A
checkout of othersrc/bootstrap-pkgsrc at 0400 US/Central on 7 February
built and installed correctly, although it may yet have been the older
codebase.

(Also, there is the problem with the new libtool-base 1.5.2 and what
appears to be a discrepancy between the library version numbers in the
PLIST and the version numbers encoded in the filenames actually built.
The few messages I've seen on this topic only note that the problem
exists but do not propose a workaround nor indicate that it's being fixed.)

Thanks for your attention to these matters and the continuing improvement
of the NetBSD pkgsrc system.
