Just as an update, I finally got a chance to test things further.

The script went through a change back in 2015, I compared the changes to
the original version of the script, nothing strange there[1]

Just to rule out the script being the issue, I performed a fresh
bootstrap & installed pkgsrc/pkgtools/pbulk manually, myself (without
the use of mk/pbulk/pbulk.sh).

I then performed a fresh bootstrap under a new prefix & requested a
gzipped bootstrap kit.

Edited my pbulk.conf to specify the relevant paths (I didn't use
/usr/pkg) and set master_mode to no.

With a limited bulk build set to build pkgtools/digest, I get
Warning: All log files of the previous pbulk run will be
removed in 5 seconds. If you want to abort, press Ctrl-C.

Making /packages, still doesn't result in /packages/All being created.
Changed the ownership of /packages to the publk user, same thing.
# ls -l /

Interestingly, bulklog directory is created automatically, in this case
the default of /bulklog.
