mk.conf is supposed to hold settings for pkgsrc.  It doesn't matter that
it's a make file.  Also, we know where it is:

http://www.dragonflybsd.org/cvsweb/src/nrelease/root/etc/mk.conf

Even if we wanted to change that (it probably should be in
$LOCALBASE/etc/mk.conf, as it's a pkgsrc thing), it's easier to change
that install location than to add a new utility and config file.

pkg_radd is a good idea; I'm all for making it easier to install things. 
I'm pointing out that we have an easy way to do this already.
