That would be horrible -- every time the package was updated, the real DCC would go away
and all that would be left is the stub.

Every system I've used has had a few ports I build from source because I need something
other than the default config.  I use pkg -l to keep the package system from changing
them and look every once in a while to see if the port has changed.
