/usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf:
  ENV['PORTSDIR'] ||= '/usr/ports'
  ENV['PACKAGES'] ||= ENV['PORTSDIR'] + '/packages'
  ENV['PKG_PATH'] ||= ENV['PACKAGES'] + '/All'
  ENV['PKG_TMPDIR'] ||= '/var/tmp'
  ENV['PORTS_DBDIR'] ||= '/var/db/ports'

server% ls -l /usr/ports 
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  11  1 Jan  2005 /usr/ports -> /home/ports

Nothing relevant in the environment.

I've done some checking and if I change PORTSDIR to /home/ports then
the messages disappear.  This implies that PORTSDIR must be the
absolute pathname - which isn't mentioned in the documentation.
