Paradoxically, that's me trying to relax that limitation. I've changed the code that reads PKG_PATH from separating things on /:, then parsing each path independently, to having the url parser interpret the whole string, and figure out by itself where to cut things. Along the process, the version in snapshots is the one where the url parser does insist on the terminating /. The further change I committed yesterday does much finer url parsing, so that in many cases, the / requirement at end should be dropped: new pkg_add will parse PKG_PATH like a human would, and figure out which : are parts of urls, and which : are separators between urls...
