>Description:

	xcdplayer installs itself into /usr/X11R6/bin instead of something
	under /usr/local.  This sounds like a bad idea to me:

	- We keep usr partitions untouched and don't back them up at all
	(some of the machines aren't backed up at all, they can be 1-1
	reinstalled with rdist by only adding installation machine to
	roots rhosts).

	- local trees are duplicated with combination of rdist and
	symlinks.  usr partitions I would like to keep static and read-only.

	I would rather see the stuff in /usr/local/bin, or
	/usr/local/X11R6/bin, I don't know which would be the best place.
	Now I have installed X programs in /usr/local/bin.

>How-To-Repeat:

	cd ports/xcdplayer; make ; make install
