Hmm ... I was pretty sure this bug report had some content when I sent it in.

But in a nutshell:

1) Install a pristine system.
2) echo 'LOCALBASE=/u/local' >> /etc/make.conf
3) Try to bootstrap and use pkg(8).

I get that remotely installed packages won't work in this environment.  But
pkg(8) fails miserably when used as the underlying inventory management tool
for things like /usr/ports/ports-mgmt/portupgrade.
