BTW, note that even though it's possible to use `-p' to work around
this (once one figures out what happened!), it's a serious pain in the
arse, because the path differs between pkgs (i.e. for some it's
/usr/pkg, for some /usr/X11R6, and for one it's even /emul/linux).

Really, given that all the paths exist, it should just install and not
give me crap about it...
