I am in the final stages of updating the qpopper port from version 4.0  
to 4.1.  However, there are a number of patches that have been  
incorporated into qpopper in the past that raise some questions.   
qpopper alters the names of all the binaries from popper* to  
qpopper*.  I first thought that was done to avoid name conflicts with  
the port popper.  However, upon investigating, the popper port is an  
older version of qpopper.  Is there a reason to maintain two different  
versions of qpopper?  Could we just have the current version as popper  
and use the original names for things?  Is there a reason the qpopper  
binary is stored in /usr/local/libexec where the default qpopper  
installation is in /usr/local/sbin?
