stuff in /usr/local/ is generally (always?) from ports.

Thus we can use `pkg which $PATH` to find what they belong to, for files
only.

e.g. on mine:

$ pkg which /usr/local/x86_64-portbld-freebsd15.0/bin/ar
/usr/local/x86_64-portbld-freebsd15.0/bin/ar was installed by package binutils-2.40_5,1

If there's nothing in the directories you're fine to delete them.

I'm reasonably sure that binutils uses an ABI naming scheme, so even
if you have 14.1-RELEASE, the package will still be found in
/usr/local directory/x86_64-portbld-freebsd14.0/ ...

Perhaps somebody else can confirm that.
