Description
libplist installs a program called "plutil". It's a completely different program from Apple's plutil. This explains these warnings I've been seeing when building various ports:
Usage: plistutil -i|--infile in_file.plist -o|--outfile out_file.plist [--debug] -i or --infile: The file to read in. -o or --outfile: The file to convert to. -d, -v or --debug: Provide extended debug information.
libplist should install the program under a different name, or in a directory that is not in $PATH, or perhaps even not at all.

Yes, they renamed plutil to plistutil. Hooray! We should apply this patch to the port ASAP.
