Hm.
The installation is 2+ years old and has been upgraded from 1.6.x ->
2.x -> 3.0beta on the way.
In the end, I manually removed
/var/db/pkg/standalone-tcsh-6.14.00nb1, applied Martin's patch from
PR 32171 (which mine is pretty similar to), then ran "pkg_admin
rebuid" a few times and cleaned out the fall-out.
It does a noiseless "Make deinstall && make reinstall" now for standalone-tcsh.
We'll probably never know what emptied the +CONTENTS file.
I think the PR can be closed as a duplicate of Martin's 32171.
