Yes, of course I know it. It doesn't look good for some casual user wanting to keep using only binary packages, though. I have a few boxes following -current - both NetBSD and pkgsrc - and have to reinstall osabi-NetBSD, then x11links, lsof and a few others with each OS minor version bump. In fact an attempt to install mate on 7.0.1 renders:
# pkgin install mate
calculating dependencies... done.
nothing to upgrade.
8 packages to be installed (0B to download, 50M to install):
