 Wow, I didn't realize such a conflict could arise from binary
 installations.  Thanks for the tip and I will see what I can do about
 using a different prefix for package installers in the future.

 But right now I"m kinda stuck with the binary installers that I have
 because the upgrade of MacPorts to libpng15 broke the arb port.  Until I
 solve the libpng15 problem there is now way for me to generate new package
 installers.  I built the ones that I have as a stop gap measure so that
 folks who needed arb could get their work done.
