 FreeBSD does it the same way as NetBSD -- install before packaging (unless 
 something changed recently). OpenBSD does install to a staging directory first.

 That is wrong. Do not use "clean" after install.
 
 Just use "make package clean".

 That looks fine.
 
 There were patches for staging support. But now committed and I don't remember 
 why.
