'pkg' is the next generation packaging (pkgng). These are the older style, 
usable with something like pkg_add. Example:

# setenv PACKAGESITE 
http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/FreeBSD-Unofficial-Packages/91amd64-default/Latest/
# pkg_add -r gmake
Fetching 
http://ftpmirror.your.org/pub/FreeBSD-Unofficial-Packages/91amd64-default/Latest/gmake.tbz...
 Done.
#

We can build pkgng style packages if there's demand for it, but we're not using 
it internally right now so they aren't being built.
