It only worked previously with a copy already installed, oops...

pkg_create does not accept a relative path as @srcdir because it overrides
the @cwd during package creation by issuing a second -C instead of replacing
the first one. I have found a much cleaner workaround and will commit it
shortly.

The installed copy might be a different version or have modified library files.
Actually, libraries are not included in the base package and will be separate
packages. However, libraries might depend on a specific version of the driver,
so it is not good to clobber an existing installation simply for the purpose of
generating a package for export.
