>Description:
After several mistaken runs of pkg_add while I was using pkgng, I decided it was time to purge
pkg_* from my systems.  I added WITHOUT_PKGTOOLS=yes to make.conf and 'make delete-old' in
/usr/src did what I wanted, deleted the old pkg_ tools without deleting /usr/sbin/pkg.  I added
WITHOUT_PKGTOOLS=yes to my build procedure for new systems but found out it doesn't compile or
install /usr/sbin/pkg.  This was inconvenient although I could fetch, manually extract, and run
pkg-static from a copy of pkg.tgz, but it would be nicer if /usr/sbin/pkg was still built,
possibly controlled by a different variable in make.conf for people that truly don't want it.  At
the very least, 'make delete-old' should delete /usr/sbin/pkg if buildworld isn't going to build
it, since it will get stale and possibly insecure if unmaintained.

>How-To-Repeat:
Add WITHOUT_PKGTOOLS=yes to make.conf to an existing system and run 'make delete-old' in
/usr/src, /usr/sbin/pkg remains.  But if you do a buildworld, pkg is not built or installed.

>Fix:
Preferred, remove SUBDIR+= pkg from .if ${MK_PKGTOOLS} != "no" in usr.sbin/Makefile.  Introduce a
new variable if desired.  Less preferred, but to be consistent, add /usr/sbin/pkg to
ObsoleteFiles.inc
