This fix falls under the "fix broken compile on platform X" and has
historically never led to a version bump.  On systems that already
have pkg_install-20050530 installed, there is no difference between
it and a pkg_install with Dan's fix.  On OpenBSD and AIX, since it
wasn't possible to install pkg_install-20050530 prior to Dan's fix,
the only relevant fact is that it's possible to install it now with
an updated pkgsrc tree.
