No, it should not be. The bootstrap contains only the essientell parts
to get the infrastructure running. Just because it is useful is not a
reason to get it into the bootstrap.

The package that used to contain packages.7 (pkgtools/pkgmanpages) was
removed because it was outdated and the redundant to the pkgsrc guide.
The latter should be considered the authoritive set and can be found in
pkgsrc/doc/pkgsrc.txt.
