In case somebody else runs across this, here are links to a couple of 
threads I found with Matthew's help:

https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/should-i-care-about-pkg-check-d-output-if-my-systems-are-installed-and-updated-via-ports-system.53416/#post-300372

https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-pkg/2015-October/001329.html

It looks like there's no incentive to fix this in pkg, so hopefully 
someone will fix the package.

Thanks everyone.
