I'm not objecting to keeping the development version of hylafax.   
What I don't like is its PKGNAME.  See mail/mutt and mail/mutt-devel  
for example.  Although they have different directory names, their  
package name is "mutt".  Unless you make hylafax-devel installable  
with hylafax (non-development version) without conflicts, you should  
either add CONFLICTS to both packages or make them have the same  
package name (hylafax).  I think the latter would be better.
