Will it complain that the binaries I copied over don't match or fix them
up with the correct new versions anyway ? [ I wouldn't want the old ones
left in place in this case ].

It'll do the right thing -- overwrite the files and trundle along its merry
way.  It's only if you replace a directory with a symlink or vice versa
that it'll get confused (a bug), and it won't update files marked with a
preserve attribute, but otherwise, you should be just fine.

Excellent, I think in that case for now the best think for me to do is continue with my script to 'cp' the binaries into place and 'pkg image-update' after full builds.

Thanks.
