I grepped through the whole pkgsrc tree, looking for NO_* variables. 
Most variables could be removed with the SKIP_PHASES above.

Another big group is the NO_{SRC,BIN}_ON_{FTP,CDROM}, including 
misspelled ones like NO_SOURCE_ON_CD. I don't think there's a need for 
these to be changed.

On the third place, there's NO_MTREE. Didn't we want to get rid of that 
anyway?

The remaining lines are only 33. That's not too much, so I think we 
could live with that.
