 Before checking the first 2, I definitely use symbolic links for pkg/pkgsrc=
 :
 
 lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel      9 Feb 15 19:44 pkg -> /home/pkg
 lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel     12 Feb 15 19:43 pkgsrc -> /home/pkgsrc
 
 I will check the other suggestions. This must be an obscure issue, as
 I have used symlinks for pkgsrc on many previous versions without
 seeing those symptoms.
