I'm always having to manually fix dependencies that get broken whenever a 
port option I've chosen gives that port a different name than usual.  For 
example, I installed openldap-{client,server} with the "SASL" option and 
the resulting packages are named openldap-sasl-{client,server}-$version.  
This gives no end of problems such as:

    # portversion -vL=
    Stale dependency: kdeadmin-3.3.1 --> openldap-client-2.2.18 -- manually 
run 'pkgdb -F' to fix, or specify -O to force.  I've added what I thought 
were appropriate alternate package dependency lines to pkgtools.conf:

  ALT_PKGDEP = {
    'apache-1.3.*'              => 'apache+mod_ssl-1.3.*',
    'openldap-client-*'         => 'openldap-sasl-client-*',
    'openldap-server-*'         => 'openldap-sasl-server-*'
  }

but they don't seem to have the desired effect.  Am I doing something wrong, 
or is ALT_PKGDEP not the appropriate way to solve this?
