>Description:
Some vendors provide a "pmake" which is NetBSD's make.
It would be good if the DESCR (and maybe COMMENT)
mentioned pmake and make a symlink for pmake.
This should also install mkdep (not the insecure-temp-handling script).
Usually a mkdep is provided with a BSD make.
Also should install sys.mk and bsd.own.mk (or mk-files should).
Note that sys.mk and bsd.own.mk are required to use pkgsrc. It would
be good if they were provided.
Here is an example DESCRiption:
-=-=-=
bmake (aka pmake) is a 4.4BSD make program designed to simplify the
maintenance of other programs. Its input is a list of specifications
as to the files upon which programs and other files depend.
mkdep constructs Makefile dependency lists.

An example COMMENT:
NetBSD version of the 'make' utility (aka pmake)
