Well, I can only say: Works for me:

# pkg_add /packages/All/xf86-video-r128-6.10.0.tgz
# pkg_add /packages/All/xf86-video-r128-6.10.0.tgz
pkg_add: package `xf86-video-r128-6.10.0' already recorded as installed
# pkg_add -u /packages/All/xf86-video-r128-6.10.0.tgz
pkg_add: package `xf86-video-r128-6.10.0' already recorded as installed
# pkg_add -uf /packages/All/xf86-video-r128-6.10.0.tgz
# pkg_info -V
