 As Jörn Clausen already mentioned last September, it's during
 the "Unwrapping files-to-be-installed" phase where
 work/.wrapper/tmp/untransform.sed erroneously removes the case
 lines in work/npth-1.5/npth-config
 
 pkgtools/cwrappers doesn't pose this problem as it doesn't use
 untransform.sed
 
 This problem can be avoided eother by
 
 + updating /usr/pkgsrc/mk/platform to get _OPSYS_SUPPORTS_CWRAPPERS=yes
   on the platform in question
 
 or
 
 + setting USE_CWRAPPERS=yes in devel/npth/Makefile to force using
   pkgtools/cwrappers
 
 or
 
 + setting _WRAP_UNTRANSFORM_SEDFILE=/dev/null in devel/npth/Makefile
   to avoid having sed apply work/.wrapper/tmp/untransform.sed on
   work/npth-1.5/npth-config
 
 Probably as more platforms support cwrappers and /usr/pkgsrc/mk/platform
 is updated, this problem will just fade away ...
