Greg A. Woods sez:
/*
 * SSH is a *bad* example. If you find it disconcerting like I did, then
 * apply the following patch before you build and install it:
 * 
 * retrieving revision 1.1.1.10
 * diff -r1.1.1.10 Makefile
 * 26c26
 * < SSH_CONF_DIR?= /etc
 * ---
 * > SSH_CONF_DIR?= /usr/pkg/etc
Shouldn't that be made into
	SSH_CONF_DIR?=		${LOCALBASE}/etc
instead?
 * 
 * 
 * NOTE: I do *NOT* want this patch applied to the NetBSD sources!
Actually, a pretty strong case COULD be made for this one, I think...
