Cross-compiling packages is a rather tedious task. You can easily
cross-build the base system and kernel, but _not_ packages. The
cross-build support for pkgsrc was committed like two weeks or so ago
and currently only supports port-arm[1]. For now, you'll either have to
use your 'nada to build packages (e.g. over NFS), or bulid a chroot'ed
cross-building environment by hand (not for the faint at heart). There
is a reason why there aren't so many port-hpcsh packages out there...
