>Description:
AfterStep didn't build for me until I:
1. Manually created /usr/pkg and /usr/pkg/lib.
2. Added /usr/X11R6/bin to my path (it couldn't find xmkmf)
>How-To-Repeat:
Make afterstep in a brand new install
>Fix:
All of the pkg stuff should create directories it may need.
Stuff in x11 should probably add X11R6/bin to its path.
