Log Message:
Config file handling in the pkgviews world is that each package
installed on the system has a unique config file directory by default,
and that the config files are symlinked into view-friendly places
during the VIEW-INSTALL step.  There are three cases:

(1) If PKG_SYSCONFBASE points to somewhere under PREFIX, then we don't
    have to do anything, as everything (except for scratch files:
    *[~#], *.OLD, *.orig, *,v) in PREFIX is symlinked into the view
    automatically when the package is added to the view using
    pkg_view(1).

(2) If PKG_SYSCONFBASE points outside of PREFIX, then we construct a
    PKG_SYSCONFDIR as:

	${PKG_SYSCONFBASE}/${DEPOT_SUBDIR}/${PKGNAME}

    This mirrors the directory layout in ${LOCALBASE}/${X11BASE} for
    depoted packages.  Then during VIEW-INSTALL time, we "add" a view
    to the package config files by using linkfarm(1) to symlink
    everything (again, except for scratch files) from PKG_SYSCONFDIR
    into PKG_SYSCONFBASE.

(3) If PKG_SYSCONFDIR.${PKG_SYSCONFVAR} is set, then we don't do any
    view-friendly symlinking.

Case (1) is the default.  Case (2) handles the NFS-shared /usr/pkg
case where config files really shouldn't be shared, and the usual
setting of PKG_SYSCONFBASE=/etc in /etc/mk.conf should do the right
thing.  Case (3) tries to avoid being overly smart and possibly
messing up when the package builder does something special for the
package.
