@aque: Any thoughts? Can /opt/local/bin/modutil in nonpareil be renamed safely?

FreeBSD ​identified the same conflict in 2012 but it is not addressed in ​their latest port. This looks like a standalone utility since I found the following in src/modutil.c: 

MOD File utility main program for Linux/Posix systems.
Reads and checks a MOD file, then outputs its contents and info.

@mf2k, what are your thoughts to renaming this to modutil-nonpareil? Anyone relying on tab completion should still find it.

Thank you for researching this. Yes, that sounds like a good solution.
