--- Comment #1 from Jason Unovitch <junovitch at freebsd.org> ---
`pkg version -R' will give what you expect.  The behaviour is documented in the
pkg-version(8) man page:

     The database of available packages and versions to compare against the
     installed packages may be chosen by specifying one of -P, -R or -I or by
     by setting VERSION_SOURCE in pkg.conf(5).  If not specified then the
     ports index file will be used if it exists (-I).  Otherwise, should a
     ports tree exist that will be used to compare versions (-P).  Failing
     either of those two choices, the repository catalogue will be used (-R).
