  Thanks, Christos, that was amazingly quick!

But, there's still one catch:

  net/uucp installs uucico in /usr/pkg/sbin/uucico (really
    ${PREFIX}/sbin/uucico), but files/uucpd/pathnames.h tells uucpd
    to look for it in /usr/libexec/uucp/uucico.  Also, uucpd requires
    the shell to match the path to uucico, and the path is hard
    coded in the man page as /usr/libexec/uucp/uucico, so the man
    page should be changed if the path is changed.  I'm not sure if
    there's any easy way to change the path in a way that respects
    ${PREFIX} without using a configure script.
