I need to keep Python 2.4 on my system to run Zope (which isn't  
compatible with 2.5).  So, I dutifully followed the instructions  
under /usr/ports/UPDATING starting with "If want to keep 2.4.x  
installed alongside 2.5.x [...]".  When I came back a little later,  
all of my dependent ports had been upgraded from py24-* to py25-*,  
effectively killing my webserver.

Could someone else take a look at those instructions and see if they  
make sense - they look a little suspicious to me - or if there is  
some gotcha that I might have missed?  Thanks.
