I, for one, install texlive outside of pkg system. As I already had the
DVD, didn't want to spend time building pkgsrc latex. Not sure whether it
is possible to avoid building latex by detecting my installation as it
won't be registered in pkg database.

Following is what the INSTALL file says:
Run "make" to build the small C program ("muttprint-langinfo"). You
need this only if your Perl version is less than 5.8.x. If you have no
C
compiler and you run Linux then you can skip this step, too.
But the makefile builds it by default. Since we take perl as a dependency,
shall we drop building of this program altogether?

Agree.

I'll try to communicate with upstream on both the patches and langinfo
issue. I'll make all required changes after waiting for a response for a
while.
