Today, a couple people mentioned that cups (via pkgsrc) has some same
commands as lpd/lpr (from base).

And sendmail from pkgsrc could be different version. And newer gcc from
pkgsrc.

But I see that the gnu findutils and gnu fileutils work around that
problem by prepending "g" to each binary name.
