Then the PLIST file should look like:

@comment $NetBSD$
bin/addgroup
bin/adduser
bin/bbconfig
bin/busybox
bin/cat
bin/catv
...
sbin/chroot
sbin/crond
...

There should be no entries for a usr/bin directory, since no pkgsrc 
package does that. All "public" binaries go into either bin or sbin.

DESCR is not a known variable. You can run "pkglint -Wall --explain" to 
see more details about that.

Instead of the last two lines, try this:

do-configure:
        cd ${WRKSRC} && env ${CONFIGURE_ENV} ${MAKE_ENV} make menuconfig
