I forgot I had to do the post-processing thing, so it will have to wait
a bit.

Also, the default for PKG_DBDIR was ".". Because you don't want your
system to be cluttered by ./All and ./Latest directories, I think we
should remove any default value to force people to set PACKAGES to some
path with included dynamic branch version, like:

export PACKAGES=3D/var/cache/pkg/packages-`sysctl -n kern.osreldate | cut
-c1`

I'm a bit confused about what policy we should have with this, so I'm
moving the discussion to -ports.
