The difference is how I create my pkgdefs, versus how you have created 
yours.
Mine are all hand-edited, not just the plain unmodified output generated 
by "*find . -print | pkgproto > prototype" in half a second.
*And my packages fully integrate into Alan Coopersmith's and Jay 
Cotton's excellent framework and can be created without dirtily adding 
options to /usr/bin/pkgmk, worse: Adding custom buildscripts.

#0.) You miss the points (yes, the technical points)
#1.) You didn't provide a reason, yet another time (is it for your 
incremental builds, as suggested by your [unnecessary] temporary removal 
of "-k" from the build-script?).
Why do you use that buildscript at all, during your testing phase?
#2.) Feel free to push your diffs, I won't.

Regards,
Martin.
