How are you specifying mysql 8 to poudriere? It sounds like that might
be where the problem is, because it's picking up the default (5.6).

Keep in mind that poudriere doesn't use the system
/etc/make.conf---you'll need to create one in
/usr/local/etc/poudriere.d (see the "Create optional make.conf"
section of poudriere(8) for a list of make.conf names that it'll
check).
