In NetBSD this appears to require making changes to one of the
packages include makefiles in .../packages/pkgsrc/mk/. (Possibly
relevant since the *BSDs share a lot of infrastructure.) This is a
little more arcane than Debian's "apt" method, where you make changes
to URLs in /etc/apt/sources.list. (And definitely not through
dselect's brain-dead file-oriented interface: to edit a file, you
throw it away and rewrite from scratch. Aargh.)
