Yep .. regardless I tossed 12.0b3 out an air lock and started over with
rc1.  Building pkg from ports works fine. Seems to. Oddly rc1 still
reports as BETA3 :

eris#
eris# uname -a
FreeBSD eris 12.0-BETA3 FreeBSD 12.0-BETA3 r340039 GENERIC  powerpc

eris# pkg query %t\ %n\ %v\ %o | sort -r
1542444839 dialog4ports 0.1.6 ports-mgmt/dialog4ports
1542444137 pkg 1.10.5_5 ports-mgmt/pkg
eris#

I still am not sure where we stand on the whole kern.smp.disabled issue
  but that is another matter.
