On macOS /tmp is a symlink to private/tmp, and you can see in the
output you posted originally that some bits are using /private/tmp and
some bits are using /tmp.  This breaks the wrappers.

You cannot set WRKOBJDIR to a path containing a symlink, so if you
want to use /tmp then you'll need to ensure it's using e.g.
/private/tmp/pkgsrc
