Usage: pkg set [-a] [-A [01]] [-o <oldorigin>:<neworigin>] [-n <oldname>:<newname>] [-y] [-Cgix] <pkg-name>

For more information see 'pkg help set'.
root@cs0:~# pkg set -A lang/perl5.20
pkg: Wrong value for -A. Expecting 0 or 1, got: lang/perl5.20

I think that description for -A flag should be like "[-A {0|1}]".
As an alternative, this flag can switch current "auto" property to reverse.
