Precisely the practice I'd like to borrow. Thanks.
BTW isn't PACKAGES already outside WRKOBJDIR?
Another related problem is, whether we can conserve the space on /usr/pkg.
If it's only a build server they are not required to hang around there
after build. So that requires 2 mechanisms:
1. How do I do a clean pkg_delete of everything other than bootstrap.
2. Whenever a build needs a package, can I have an option to install from
packages automatically if the version has not changed. [Yes, other things
can change with a package, like configuration options. But then I'll have
to delete the package so that it gets rebuilt.]
