|pkg has a man page, but subcommands have their own man pages named
with 
|a dash.  So 'man pkg-info' shows that one.  Another way to get there
is 
|'pkg help info'.

That's the part I missed.   Now looking at the pkg man page, I see
the pkg-info reference, plain as day, in the 'see also' section.  :(

Thanks for the follow-up.
