No. Assume that you are building packages for global distribution, but 
your PKGSRCDIR is /scratch/pkgsrc-current. The users of these packages 
won't usually have a directory like this, so a fixed value like 
/usr/pkgsrc is preferred, at least to me.

It would only make the documentation more complicated if we allowed the 
build-time PKGSRCDIR to pass through to the binary package.

For example, pkgtools/pkglint/Makefile has been doing this since 
November 2005 (revision 1.302).
