pkg_* tools use the old packages database, while the pkg tool uses its own,
new, database.
After you upgraded to pkgng and started using it for all your package
needs, your old database stopped being updated (because the old pkg_* tools
aren't being used to install packages anymore). This is why the old pkg_*
tools are still reporting old version information - they only see what's in
their old database.
