CONFLICTS in xentools?



I was able to install xentools42 on a system with xentools41.  This was
a mess because they install many of the same files.  I had the
impression there was some new spiffy auto-CONFLICT stuff that was
supposed to flag them as conflicting at install time because of the
PLIST overlap.  But this didn't happen.  So I wonder if xentools* should
get CONFLICTS+= xentools*, or something else.

What I did was

  on a netbsd-6 i386 system with head pkgsrc, built nad installed
  xentools41.

  installed pkgin (configured by default to get packages from the
  official 2014Q3 builds)

  pkgin install xentools42
  # I did this to see if the xentools42 package really was available,
  # because it doesn't build for me.

and then found that xentools41 package had overwritten files.  It was
easy enough to recover by removing both and re-adding, but something is
amiss.
