You should get packages(7) with the bootstrap AFACT.

IMO the pkgsrc.7 -> packages.7 link and the mk.conf manpage should be 
part of the bootstrap so that not each system that uses pkgsrc have to 
provide their own.

I've Cc'd Jeremy Reed, maybe he has some more insight on whether this 
could be added to the bootstrap.
