The PLIST in kdebase3 has this...
$ grep HAVE_RANDR PLIST
${HAVE_RANDR}bin/krandrinithack
${HAVE_RANDR}bin/krandrtray
${HAVE_RANDR}lib/kde3/kcm_randr.la
${HAVE_RANDR}lib/kde3/kcm_randr.so
${HAVE_RANDR}lib/kde3/krandrinithack.la
${HAVE_RANDR}lib/kde3/krandrinithack.so
${HAVE_RANDR}lib/libkdeinit_krandrinithack.la
${HAVE_RANDR}lib/libkdeinit_krandrinithack.so
${HAVE_RANDR}share/applications/kde/krandrtray.desktop
${HAVE_RANDR}share/kde/applnk/.hidden/randr.desktop
Do I need to set HAVE_RANDR on the system where the binary packages are
to be installed?

It's a NetBSD machine, so I haven't installed XFree86-* packages. The
only packages installed are from the kde3 meta-package.

Do you mean that these files may not be indexed in the pacakges but
could be installed there by the install script? That way my script would
pick them up as "not in a pacakge".

These, I suspect, are probably just as you say:

Ok. Let me know if I can do any more.
