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.
 *** Error code 1

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.
