Set it via an environmental variable:
setenv ABI freebsd:10:x86:32
ABI can be overridden with environmental variables or via `-o
ABI=freebsd:10:x86:32'. I'm actually using environmental variables on
a CentOS box with a locally compiled pkg to do a pkg fetch and pkg
repo to store a couple packages for internal use.
