Yes. Meantime, you have several choices:

1) Mark the port NO_PACKAGE and/or no-pkg-mirror to force users use a port that
1a) builds software from source, or
1b) installs pre-build binaries bundled with distfiles (just like cvsup binary port did earlier);
2) Prepare and submit a patch for pkg itself to support this feature. It should be not hard to do.
