No flame, but one comment I happen to agree that the pkgsrc default for these 
vars suck.  I have complained but was ignored/not heard.  I'm told the 
detection of native items is a problem that will be fixed after the the 
pkgsrc branch (which has come and gone).

I would be happy for there to be a knob for this, no time to actually do it 
myself though.  I'l look at patches if someone else wants to do it.
