Uh, you can't install -current packages on certain machines because
pkg_add bombs out.  You can't update the pkgtools on those machines either,
becuase the pkgtools can't be made into a binary package.

Having the comp set installed on all machines that you want to install
binary packages on is an unreasonable requirement, IMHO.
