 So, if I am interpreting this correctly, the implication is I hit an edge
 case because Apple Silicon binaries had not yet been generated by the
 buildbots?

 Out of curiosity: what parameters are the buildbots using to generate such
 binaries? Is it different than %port install ffmpeg ?

 It would be nice to know if I can generate similar binaries locally.

 Thanks!
