The canonical way to cross compile a package is to use build.sh from the
top of the NetBSD source directory:

	./build.sh $(all your usual options) pkg=x11/tinyx-wscons

assuming your /etc/mk.conf points at your pkgsrc directory.

This will use the tools build already for the mac68k build and invoke
the necessary pkgsrc magic. If this does not work for some pkg (and it is
not because the pkg is inherently non-cross-buildable), file a PR :-)
