 One easy options is to just set CONFLICTS= in Makefile.  Maybe not the 
 right way, but if noone has complained in the past about you clobbering 
 an existing binary, maybe its the fastest way.
 
 other options arn't pretty, sed's to $WRKSRC/Makefile(s), and/or (don't 
 use MV... in $WRKSRC it would prevent a second install without 
 recompile, in PREFIX would have already wiped out the other)
 
 Maybe bring this up in ports@ ?
