That's a surprisingly naive way of thinking... The CONFLICTS functionality is
broken on occasion in bsd.port.mk, and not every port sets it anyway...
`pkg_info -W' would also be able to warn about checksum mismatches, which
would suggest, a file has been modified (or corrupted) since getting
installed.
Anyway, what is the overhead exactly?
