Uh -- is it actually possible to create an empty directory when
installing from a pkg tarball?

I ran into this problem with the phpMyAdmin port, and the only good
way I found to solve it was to add a stub file into any empty
directories.  You could use a post install script or an mtree file,
but that seems like overkill for such a trivial operation.

If you want to create ${PREFIX}/somedir you can add this line
to pkg-plist:

@exec mkdir -p %D/somedir

Or I could do that, yes.  Hmmm... must try that actually, along with a
few other mods I have lined up.

        Cheers,
