pkg_create already supports a -D flag; any +MESSAGE file should simply
be passed to it and, in fact, this is already the case:

.if exists(${PKGDIR}/MESSAGE)
PKG_ARGS+=		-D ${PKGDIR}/MESSAGE
.endif

Note that this didn't actually _work_ until a fairly recent
(1 month ago?) incarnation of pkg_add, mind you.  Those changes
did make it into 2.2.1, unless I'm very much mistaken.
