When attempting to compile a package, I get the following:
red:# make
>> Checksum OK for xfmail-1.3.tar.gz.
===> Extracting for xfmail-1.3
Your package tools need to be updated to 1999/01/19 versions.
The installed package tools were last updated on 1998/11/07.
Please make and install the pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_install package.

I've cd'd the above directory and issued a make there:
red:# cd /usr/pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkg_install
red:# make
red:# make install
red:#
It doesn't appear to have done anything. Attempts to compile the
package again fail exactly as before.
