There is a typo in the patch:

--- patch-workaround-ia64.orig   2013-11-29 10:34:10.000000000 +0000
+++ patch-workaround-ia64       2013-11-29 08:48:54.000000000 +0000

        else if (len == 3) {
 -              if (tolower (p[0]) == 'y' && strncasecmp (p, "yes", 3) == 0) {
-+              if ((p[0] == 'y' || p[0] == 'Y') strncasecmp (p, "yes", 3) == 0) {
++              if ((p[0] == 'y' || p[0] == 'Y') && strncasecmp (p, "yes", 3) == 0) {
                        ret = true;
                        val = true;
                }

but, after fixing that, pkg reinstalled fine.

Are you planning of adding this patch to the port?
When you say it's a platform problem, do you
mean there is some bug on ia64, that should be fixed?

Thank you

Anton
