It's probably more.  There hase been a thread on this topic already:
http://mail-index.netbsd.org/pkgsrc-users/2012/05/29/msg016375.html
but it does not seem that anything happened after that.  I would vote to
generally enable the functionality provided by SET_LIBDIR.  I mean: Why
not?  What bad could come from settig the lib dir in all packages to the
default directory when every package relies on this default directory?


Cheers,

Michael
