Yes, just a workaround.
Probably, there some real solutions:
1. change pbulk to resolve dependency well
I'm not sure it is hard or not.
2. rename `user' package (as your suggestion)
It is reasonable, because those packages provide same functional,
but different implementation, like lang/*awk packages.
In addition to your patch, yes, we need to revbump whole packages
using user/group handling.
3. (create new package's availability, not FAIL, just SKIP?)
(might be required for 1.)
IMO, 2. is preferred, but affect to many packages...
