I think the best way to do this would be to stick the multiversion
code string in, so

 - /usr/pkgsrc/category/pkg/work
 + /usr/pkgsrc/category/pkg/work27
 + /usr/pkgsrc/category/pkg/work37

and

 - $WRKOBJDIR/category/pkg
 + $WRKOBJDIR/category/pkg27
 + $WRKOBJDIR/category/pkg37

or maybe

 - $WRKOBJDIR/category/pkg
 + $WRKOBJDIR/category/pkg/27
 + $WRKOBJDIR/category/pkg/37

This seems like it'll add the least amount of annoying verbiage to the
paths, but it probably also takes the largest amount of effort to
deploy; I don't think our various instances of multiversion handling
are systematized enough to make this a simple change.

(but maybe they should be)
