Sure :) Conflict handling has been reworked and this was committed two
weeks ago:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2010-December/064761.html

Thunderbird 3.1 builds fine if Thunderbird 3.0 is installed and vice
versa but they install files into the same place. According to the new
conflict handling such ports should only have CONFLICTS_INSTALL instead
of CONFLICTS. This allows user to build a port although a conflicting
port is installed. Of course a message is shown first that they build a
port which conflicts with an installed one.

I've submitted a patch which updates the porters handbook with the new
conflict handling. This patch is currently under review but I expect
that it will be committed soon.
