 Building ncursesw succeeds, but activation fails (thus breaking ports that
 depend on it)
 with a complaint about the file `/opt/local/bin/captoinfo`:

 {{{
 --->  Fetching ncursesw
 --->  Verifying checksum(s) for ncursesw
 --->  Extracting ncursesw
 --->  Applying patches to ncursesw
 --->  Configuring ncursesw
 --->  Building ncursesw with target all
 --->  Staging ncursesw into destroot
 --->  Installing ncursesw 5.6_0+darwin_8
 --->  Activating ncursesw 5.6_0+darwin_8
 Error: Target org.macports.activate returned: Image error:
 /opt/local/bin/captoinfo already exists and does not belong to a
 registered port.  Unable to activate port ncursesw.
 Error: Status 1 encountered during processing.
