Hmmm...  Actually, I have pkg_install-20070804 as well, and I didn't mention
it, but had already tried removing /usr/pkgsrc/packages/.pkgcache and got the
same result.  Permissions are

-rw-r--r--   1 mep  wheel  76 Aug  5 17:22 /usr/pkgsrc/packages/.pkgcache

I'll dig around a bit more to see if I can pin this down, then will send-pr.

Thanks,
Mark
