If I understand everything correctly, it seems that using opam and wanting to
link to freebsd libraries installed by pkg needs the pkg-config utility which
is in devel/pkgconf. 

Thus this is a suggestion to add devel/pkgconf to the RUN_DEPENDS list. This
will help people less skilled than I am unravel the cryptic error messages that
follow from -not- installing devel/pkgconf. :)
