Here's a suggestion...  I know it's not ideal for those who are rebuilding
their systems from sources, but it would at least help out other users.

Install an entry in /var/db/pkg for parts of the base system like perl, tk, or
any other software that people may not want on their systems. When it's time to
upgrade the software, or just delete it permanently, all people have to do is a
pkg_delete

Any thoughts?
