I _strongly_ disagree with this change.  This is far from the only
package which duplicates a system command, and users should _not_ be
copying commands from /usr/pkg/bin to usr/bin in _any_ case.  (If they
do so, and then remove the package, they will end up with NON-WORKING
binaries in usr/bin, and furthermore, these binaries will not be caught
if they update the package in response to an audit-packages warning.

Any of the (number of) packages which replace system commands require
you to have /usr/pkg/bin ahead of /usr/bin in your path.  This one is no
different.

_Please_ back out this advice, as it _will_ cause problems for users who
follow it.  Thank you.
