Now one of the major difference between pkg_* and pkgng is that plist is no more
a script, as it should have never been meaning current directory means nothing.

As all of the plist (meaning 99%) of the uses the %D as they should do and %D is
expected to the lastet @cwd "path" then it works correctly.

keeping plist as a script is a total non sense and has been avoided by most of
the maintainer for the last years (almost noone used @cwd that way) for good
reason.
