If it does not force : this, then perhaps FreeBSD should adopt it. I have never used NetBSD, : so I cannot comment further on it. I'd point out that make install in the pkgsrc tree installs into /usr/pkg too. So NetBSD doesn't differentiate between locally compiled files and binary packages they supply.
