You are assuming that someone will never just run base.
Base includes a lot of useful software all by itself.
Apache, PF, a working file system, lynx, vi, working X,
ntpd, mkhybrid, cdio, sftp, ssh, sendmail, mg, tons of perl stuff,
manual pages, etc, etc
Well, asking to set PKG_PATH to an ftp server after cd install is just
that, I'm not assuming that the user has to immediately 'pkg_add something'.
Setting the variable to cd path is not useful, because all file sets are
unpacked by default so you don't need it anymore in terms of installing
additional packages.
