With staging the pkg-install script will be not executed during `make stage' but
if you run `make install'.

Without staging you have to execute the pkg-install script from the Makefile
with such a line
	@${SH} ${PKGINSTALL} ${PKGNAME} POST-INSTALL

If you want to do this in a *package* you have to use a pkg-install script
regardless if you use stage or not.
