I always find it's infinitely better in the long run to name things with
their primary functional name first, and any variant identifier
following, so in this case:
comm/uucp-taylor
That way all the "uucp" packages will sort together (not that there's
likely to be any other in this case! :-)
There's some (though unfortunately not yet 100%) precedent for this in
pkgsrc, such as all the language interpreter sub-packages, and things
like net/radiusd-cistron (net/radius needs to be renamed net/radiusd-merit).
