 Ouch. That was the output from 'make print-PLIST' I used. For some
 reason it put ${OPSYS} instead of NetBSD. When is it good to have a
 variable like OPSYS in the PLIST? A generated file which is assumed to
 have the name of the operating system? Seems to me it can break more
 than it automatically fixes? I see that some packages in pkgsrc-wip are
 using it but noting in regular pkgsrc.
 
 How about a 'make print-PLIST' which does the regular things which are
 SAFE, quiet. Things it does which are NOT SAFE, like inserting OPSYS, is
 also noted on stderr? It would have helped me, I guess.
