Sounds possible, and that's what bsd.python.mk does.
databases/py25-bsddb is a slave port of databases/py-bsddb,
which generates python 2.5 package for some ports depend on
specified python version.  When a system with python 2.5
as the default setting, databases/py-bsddb and databases/py25-bsddb
should generate same package.  So now the problem is, is it OK for them
have same LATEST_LINK?  Or we can just ignore this problem, since this
should not effect official package build, and the latest links on the ftp.
