Yes, please make the ports non-conflicting.

The python portgroup adds the suffix by default for version 2.6 and above, mirroring the behavior of the python26 and later portgroups. Versions 2.5 and below do not do this, just as the python25 and below portgroups did not do this; do it manually for those versions.

It's actually a different of python26 and later building as a framework, and python25 and earlier not doing so. With a framework build, the actual binaries go into versioned directories deep in the tree, and only symlinks (by default with versions appended) get made in ${prefix}/bin. For python25 and earlier, the real binaries are installed in ${prefix}/bin, and, just like the real binaries python26 and later put in the deep directory, they don't have suffixes.
