Is this the patch?

https://github.com/pkgng/pkgng/blob/master/ports/portmaster.patch

When installing from a port can a patched portmaster update *both* pkgng  
databases and /var/db/pkg/*/  ?
Installing from source with the regular version of portmaster and then  
trying to incrementally sync up with pkg2ng doesn't work too well.
