 Just as a question then...

 If the user who wanted colorized ls has to change to get it;
why bother with putting this in the FreeBSD ls?

 I mean, there is a colorized ls port - right?  So, you could
simply install that one.

 Then, since the user has to change anyway - have him change
to use the installed port...
