ticso@cicely5:/tmp# pkg_add -f -v png-1.0.9_1.tgz
Requested space: 831096 bytes, free space: 13705216 bytes in /var/tmp/instmp.ijZaPY
extract: Package name is png-1.0.9_1
extract: CWD to /usr/local
pkg_add: extract_plist: unable to cwd to '/usr/local'
Exit 2

The reason is that /usr/local is a softlink to an amd volume instead
of a directory:

ticso@cicely5:/tmp# ls -ald /usr/local
lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  10 Nov 29  1998 /usr/local -> /vol/local
ticso@cicely5:/tmp# ls -ald /usr/local/.
drwxr-xr-x  41 root  wheel  1024 Dec 21 21:05 /usr/local/.

If I make /usr/local a real directory everything works fine, but
that's something I don't want to do generaly when installing a
package.
