+# WRKDIR
+#	The base directory where all the work is done for building a
+#	package. The pkgsrc infrastructure creates various files in this
+#	directory, whose names all start with a dot.
+#
+#	The default value of EXTRACT_DIR is ${WRKDIR}.
+#	The default value of WRKSRC is ${WRKDIR}/${DISTNAME}.
+#
+#	When PKGSRC_LOCKTYPE is set, a lock file is placed into this
+#	directory to prevent multiple processes from trying to build
+#	the package at the same time.
