For the new pkg it isn't documented anywhere that I know of.  The old
pkg_create manual can be found here:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=pkg_create&manpath=FreeBSD+9.2-RELEASE
But I suspect the new pkg only supports a subset of those (cwd, exec,
unexec, mode, owner, group, comment, dirrm).

@dirrmtry isn't documented there because it is handled by Mk/bsd.port.mk.
It is replaced by "@unexec rmdir %D/path 2>/dev/null || true".
