>Description:
Some vendors provide a "pmake" which is NetBSD's make.

It would be good if the DESCR (and maybe COMMENT)
mentioned pmake and make a symlink for pmake.

This should also install mkdep (not the insecure-temp-handling script).
Usually a mkdep is provided with a BSD make.

Also should install sys.mk and bsd.own.mk (or mk-files should).

Note that sys.mk and bsd.own.mk are required to use pkgsrc. It would
be good if they were provided.

Here is an example DESCRiption:

-=-=-=
bmake (aka pmake) is a 4.4BSD make program designed to simplify the
maintenance of other programs. Its input is a list of specifications
as to the files upon which programs and other files depend.

mkdep constructs Makefile dependency lists.
-=-=-

An example COMMENT:
NetBSD version of the 'make' utility (aka pmake)

 I know that devel/newmkdep exists.

 It should be named mkdep.

 I see it is the official NetBSD mkdep.

 It is not portable yet.

 gcc -O2     -c newmkdep.c
 newmkdep.c:41: parse error before string constant
 newmkdep.c:41: warning: data definition has no type or storage class
 newmkdep.c:46: parse error before string constant
 newmkdep.c:46: warning: data definition has no type or storage class

 (devel/bmake doesn't need to provide mkdep itself if devel/mkdep works.)

 I imported a newer mkdep to wip/mkdep. It is based on latest NetBSD code.
 It uses libnbcompat and has been tested on Linux and NetBSD.
