 Actually I think it would be better for base sqlite3 not to be exposed
 as a libsqlite3.so shlib, and pkgsrc should ignore the base sqlite3.
 
 Base sqlite3 is used only for a couple of things:
 
 - apropos
 - a Lua module (not sure if anything uses that, maybe it should be
   shipped separately in pkgsrc)
 - formerly Heimdal but that was bad (PR 57406) so I nixed it
 
 and nothing else that I know of.  And it's lagged far behind pkgsrc
 sqlite3 for a long time.  It might be better to just bake it into
 apropos and otherwise take it out of the NetBSD build.
