- fix cosmetics to shut-up compiler in -pedantic mode (axe several unused vars
and provide default clause in several switch() statements).
No response from: -ports
name is less than 5 and doesn't contain recognizeable suffix (one of .tar or
.tgz), while gzip's it if lengh of the name greater than 4. For example
`pkg_create [options] pkg1' will create pkg1.tar, while
`pkg_create [options] pkg11' will create pkg11.tgz;
- use TRUE/FALSE as a values for boolean variables instead of explicit 1/0 and
erroneous YES in one case.

This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.

2. Add a "feature" to pkg_create (OK, OK, it's a miserable hack!) to get
it to dump its internal packing list out so that the `fake-pkg' rule in
bsd.port.mk can generate a more meaningful packing list.
1. pkg_create now has a -P argument for specifying dependencies on the
command line.
2. pkg_add will honor dependencies and chain-load them automatically if
it finds the required package(s) in the same directory as the package
that is being loaded. For best results, install packages from a directory
containing all the packages you'll possibly need
(like /usr/ports/packages/all).
2 remaining flaws:
1. pkg_add looks in one place (where you were when you loaded the primary
pkg) for depended packages. If you can come up with a search path scheme
that's not a total hack - be my guest!
2. Recursive dependency expansion can result in the name of a dep being
listed more than once. This doesn't bother pkg_add since it checks
for package existance with pkg_info and will skip already-loaded packages.
I don't know how/if pkg_delete handles this yet, however. I need to look
into it.
