+Xpkgwedge, not a "real" program in the traditional sense, is a hack that
+allows NetBSD users to compile X11 pkgs from pkgsrc and install them
+outside of the X11 tree - even if they use Imake - by using pkgxmkmf.
+
+Pkgxmkmf is a slightly modified xmkmf from the X11R6.3 release and supports
+finding config files in ${LOCALBASE}/lib/X11/config, if it exists, and in
+${X11BASE}/lib/X11/config. In all other respects, it is identical to xmkmf.
+Please refer to xmkmf(1) for more information.
