A depends on dependency B then dependency A will be in all cases listed
before B, so ``pkg_add -r'' will fetch/install packages in the correct order.
Previously dependencies were sorted just by its names, which is why
``pkg_add -r'' never actually worked properly.
To be usefull, hovewer, this fix requires that all packages have been
rebuilt, so it will take some time until users would be able to feel
posititive improvements. For the same reasons it is desirable to propagate
these changes to the 4-stable package building cluster *before* 4.3 ports
freeze, so packages for 4.3-RELEASE would be properly prepared.

.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.

the option in pkg_create. Now preserved files start with a . and are
named .<filename>.<pkgname>.backup so that their purpose is more clear.
Note that just using the preserve option without proper pkg_deps
is also foolish since packages being deleted in the incorrect order with
preserve on can generate some odd results.
