If you're like me and don't like installing a legacy version with conflicts for a single purpose dependency, try the FRIENDLY option to append a 6 to all binaries and corresponding manpages.

i'm barely a yellowbelt porter; i'd love to know if theres a preeminent customary name for the concept i decided to call FRIENDLY. i'd also love to be taught if there might be a better way to come up with BIN_FILES in post-install target, (à la `ls ${STAGEDIR}${PREFIX}/bin`) rather than hardcode the list as i have. Also, is there a more clever and appropriate way to handle the plist entries than how i have, or would one agree with me taking the simple approach?

Thank you to all the FreeBSD team, porters, maintainers, committers and mailing list watchers!
