Python 3 from ports: alternate install?

Greetings. I want to have both python 2.x and 3.0 on a FreeBSD 7.0 box. 2. I already installed 2.5.1 from ports; 'which python' reports /usr/local/bin/python, and one would hope.

I would like to install python 3 as /usr/local/bin/python3 or somesuch; is that possible from ports? If not, I can probably install from source code, but I trust FreeBSD's ports installer more...
