This helped, I rebuilt the jail adding the -x option to poudriere jail,
which does install the cross tools.

Now it is able to build the pkg package, but fails on every other port
saying:

==>   Installing existing package /packages/All/pkg-1.8.3.txz
[poudriere.madpilot.net] Installing pkg-1.8.3...
[poudriere.madpilot.net] Extracting pkg-1.8.3: .......... done

Failed to install the following 1 package(s): /packages/All/pkg-1.8.3.txz
*** Error code 70

Stop.
make: stopped in /usr/ports/devel/gmake-lite


The thing I noticed is, if I examine the pkg package using the host kg
command I get:

# pkg info -F pkg-1.8.3.txz

so looking at Architecture it still think it's softfp.

Anyone has an idea what I'm doing wrong still?

Maybe I should just remove the jail an start from scratch?
