"3.3. Platform-specific notes " removed from pkgsrc guide?



I was looking for a solution for using a different shell for config
files and I noticed that, at some point in time, the platform specific
notes have been removed.

Compare the latest guide:
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/pkgsrc/current/pkgsrc/doc/pkgsrc.html

with this one cached in 2009:
ftp://ftp.tuwien.ac.at/opsys/NetBSD/misc/repositories/hg/htdocs/Documentation/pkgsrc/pkgsrc.html

(Last time I used pkgsrc on a real environment was in 2015 and I'm
sure it was there)

Any reason why it was removed?

I can't see a reference to $CONFIG_SHELL  anywhere in the new guide
and I think it could have been helpful.

It doesn't appear to be in the default mk.conf either.
