I thought it was nice having them split up, especially if liblzma is licensed differently from the xz command line utilities.

But if splitting them up is no longer desired, then you also need to change any liblzma dependencies to xz in all ports that have them, and increase their revisions. I just received an email about that for ImageMagick, but I count 15 such ports. We can't have ports depending on ports that have been replaced_by another port.
