There have been no reports of its failure.

Consider it reported! There doesn't seem to be a "pkg get" subcommand
to retrieve properties, so it isn't clear that there is a way to prove that
the property is actually set.  The above was copy-and-pasted right from
the command line where it was executed before doing the image-update,
which took two passes to complete successfully (pkg image-update evidently
creates a brand new /rpool/boot/, effectively destroying menu.1st, so it is
impossible to do it in one pass - see bugs 7880 and 6744 which seem unfixed
as of snv111b -> snv124).

Making /var/pkg/download be on a separate dataset is being worked on.

Alternatively, you can set the PKG_CACHEDIR environment variable to a
directory of your choice.

Are these properties and env variables documented anywhere? The man
pages on pkg don't seem to mention these anywhere...

Thanks -- Frank
