The non-writability check for DISTDIR is intended to prevent wasting
resources when fetchers wouldn't be able to save what they download. On my build farm with pkgsrc (and pkgsrc/distfiles) mounted over NFS, however, the check gives false positives for NetBSD 9.2 and -current. Downgrade it to a warning so that these fetches can succeed, while leaving a breadcrumb in case someone encounters a true positive. It would of course be interesting to sort out why, in my environment, a wide variety of other OSes get 1 for "${TEST} ! -w $fetchdir" while NetBSD gets 0. In the meantime, joerg@ suggested this workaround and gdt@ agrees it's reasonable to try.
