sounds good to me!
It would be nice to start thinking about an interface to pkg_info(1) to
retrieve single variables from the BUILD_INFO file, e.g.
$ pkg_info -Q BUILDER,BUILD_DATE,OS_VERSION tcsh
OS_VERSION= 1.5
BUILDER= hubertf@smaug.fh-regensburg.de:/usr/pkgsrc/shells/tcsh
BUILD_DATA= whatever
$ pkg_info -qQ BUILDER tcsh
hubertf@smaug.fh-regensburg.de:/usr/pkgsrc/shells/tcsh
-Q for "query", with non-verbose (-q) operation not printing the variable
name.
