Resolving ports conflicts for ImageMagick6

[bob prohaska]

In trying to bring inkscape up to date on r340487 the process
is getting stuck with

===>   Registering installation for ImageMagick6-6.9.10.14,1 as automatic
Installing ImageMagick6-6.9.10.14,1...
pkg-static: ImageMagick6-6.9.10.14,1 conflicts with ImageMagick-6.9.9.28_2,1 (installs files into the same place).  Problematic file: /usr/local/bin/Magick++-config
*** Error code 70

The problem seems to have its origin in the rename of the imagemagick
port mentioned in /usr/ports/UPDATING for November 10th.

How does one work past a problem like this? 

Thanks for reading,
