Another random rants:

1. pkg check -B fails to detect all ports that were broken. I checking 
my ports after each update with this one and it reported a number of 
miscrepancies, but not all of them.

2. pkg_libchk from sysutils/bsdadminscripts still works perfectly and 
reports all ports with broken binaries.
