>Description:
	If pkg_tarup is the first package you install, the subdirectories
	under /usr/pkg do not get created.  The package installs, but it
	creates a file /usr/pkg/bin instead of a directory /usr/pkg/bin
	containing other files.
>How-To-Repeat:
	On a system without any packages installed, install pkg_tarup from
	pkgsrc (not from a binary package).
>Fix:
	Not sure how to fix this one.
