Forgive me if I've completely missed something in the documentation, but I
couldn't find an answer in Packages.txt, nor could I find an example in
the existing pkgsrc tree.

So, I'm building a package that wants to install some stuff in /var/spool.
I'm happy to do this, I believe it to be right place (unless it isn't, and
a spool dir under /usr/pkg is the right thing.. I'm willing to discuss
this ;)

How does one declare in the PLIST, filenames that are not relative to
/usr/pkg. putting the absolute pathname in just seems to result in the pkg
inventory containing filenames like /usr/pkg//var/spool/...whatever...

Here's the file list, from hylafax (the package I'm trying to build)
