Currently the problem the problem only shifted from people installing the
port with PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND8 to PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND8_INCLUDES,
which will be admittedly less users.

The commit does not really solve the problems. May I suggest one of the
following:

- issue a big, fat warning what problems will occur if the port is
  installed with PORT_REPLACES_BASE_BIND8_INCLUDES, including a way
  to restore the previous state in case of problems

- add another PKGNAMESUFFIX, so that ports known to conflict with this
  installation could test for it

Thanks
