So, it appears that:

touch /usr/pkgsrc/makefile

pkg_chk -P ftp://binary/url -abg (generate pkg_chk.conf if nonexistent)

pkg_chk -P ftp://binary/url -abf (fetch all needed packages)

pkg_chk -P //wherever/previous/step/put/binaries -abu (upgrade)

will upgrade everything with binary packages previously downloaded?

This would be very handy, as it would (mostly) remove 2 of the big
problems with pkg_chk - downtime while new versions are installed, and
packages failing to build.
