 Sorry, it contradicts the facts.

 It is. See:
 
 $ cd /usr/pkgsrc/archivers/unzip/
 $ make
 => Required installed package digest>=20010302: digest-20060826 found
 audit-packages: not found
 ===> Skipping vulnerability checks.

 *** Error code 1
 
 Stop.
 make: stopped in /usr/pkgsrc/archivers/unzip
 $ stat /usr/pkgsrc/distfiles/unzip-5.52/unzip552.tar.gz >/dev/null && echo ok
 ok

 $ stat /usr/pkgsrc/distfiles | cut -d ' ' -f1-6

 With fresh pkgsrc tree.
 
 Thus, you can't reuse read-only DISTDIR.
