`make package' and a binary package will be created in ${PACKAGES}.
It is not changed.
My point is that changing replace introduced a regression, and
dicussion/review should have (sorry if I missed it) led to creating
replace-package at the same time.
Should I explain it again?
"binary package in ${PACKAGES} will be overwritten unconditionally"
is the regression introduced at changed to USE_DESTDIR=yes by default.

So you are saying that "make replace" will store the (new) binary
package in ${PACKAGES} if there is not already a package of the same
name? Or that 'make replace' never used to store binary packges? My
perception (a fuzzy perception; I've not been paying as close attention
to netbsd/pkgsrc over the last few months) is that there was a
relatively recent change where 'make replace' (in the USE_DESTDIR=yes
case) stopped storing binary packages in ${PACKAGES}, and instead left
them in WRKDIR.
I did not understand that from reading the mail you referenced the first
time, and I still can't understand that from reading it now.
