There really is no need to be so clever here. The bootstrapping issue is

I think Doug's correct in this case about it being a "one-time
problem" as installing via bsdinstall, etc should take care of this (I
disagree with the "small percentage of our users" part though). There's
still a chicken and egg problem with installing packaging via bsdinstall,
etc though, as ports requires pkg* in order to function; I really hope
that some of the naysayers have considered this "minor" issue as this
would be a stop-gap to removing pkg(8) from base.
Rather than providing a solution for that problem because that's a
bigger architectural issue (and not my job to solve), I offer this patch I
quickly hacked up instead as my 2 cents for the discussion on how to make
users aware that pkg_install is dying/dead, as this is one case that
needs to be better handled.
Thanks,

PS It's really sad that no one really has been updating UPDATING in either
ports or src, as I think this would help alleviate the need for
unnecessary obfuscation.
