In order to fix the issue that "pkg verify" fails verification on libc on

"mountpoint=true" on /lib/libc.so.1 for x86. The changes to the packaging
system are almost as simple:
18903 support for mountpoint labeling
I think this is right, although I'd add a comment above the is_mtpt =
... saying it exists for libc.so.1 so it's immediately obvious.

+1
There's also a question as to whether this is our intended long-term
fix (which I doubt).
It may be part of it -- it'd be nice to know whether a file is expected to
be a mountpoint or not, regardless of whether we can detect it and check
underneath it.
Ah, ok.
