In case somebody else runs across this, here are links to a couple of
threads I found with Matthew's help:
https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/should-i-care-about-pkg-check-d-output-if-my-systems-are-installed-and-updated-via-ports-system.53416/#post-300372

It looks like there's no incentive to fix this in pkg, so hopefully
someone will fix the package.
Thanks everyone.
