The new devel/universal-ctags port conflicts with editors/emacs as they both install an executable at /usr/local/bin/ctags. The old devel/ctags port installs its executable at /usr/local/bin/exctags. I propose doing something similar here, and changing the installation path to /usr/local/bin/uctags or /usr/local/bin/universal-ctags.

The diff looks great, thank you! Is there anything you might need from me to move forward?
