Your fix doesn't work as it only defines NO_PKGTOOLS_REQD_CHECK for
pkgtools/pkg_install itself, and not the dependancies:

===> Extracting for pkg_install
===> Required package db>=2.7.3: NOT found
===> Verifying reinstall for ../../databases/db
=> Checksum OK for db-2.7.7.tar.gz.

===> The installed package tools were last updated on 2002/08/27.

*** Error code 255

Short of the horrendous bodge of filling every pkg_install dependancy
Makefile with NO_PKGTOOLS_REQD_CHECK I don't have any ideas on a real
fix yet.

FWIW, I just redid ./bootstrap as I moved to a different architecture,
so didn't pick up on the fact this "fix", well, didn't :-)  A colleague
has ran into the same problem now though.
