Can these pathnames be defined by environment variables so that we can point to other directories on non-OpenSolaris platforms?

Or, since you didn't put a "/" on the front of the paths, are those paths intended to be relative to the image root? In that case, those paths are not very conducive for use within a user image. It would still be nice to be able to define them with env. variables.
An image property is likely more suitable than environment variables so that we could pick defaults internally based os platform.

I agree.  An image property is preferable to an environment variable.
Though, I'd rather have the platform define where it wants these things
if /usr/share/pkg isn't acceptable.

That's an interesting point. Maybe we should have a special platform defaults file that we deliver with pkg(5) so that each platform could easily customise them?
