One of:

1. Upgrade to 4.7-RELEASE or later.
2. Pull down source from 4.7-RELEASE or later and rebuild pkg_info.
3. Dike out the calls to check-already-installed in _INSTALL_SEQ and
   _INSTALL_SUSEQ in /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk, and be careful about
   cvsupping since it will blow away the change.
