Comment (by devans@…):

 A possibly more relevant case.  p5-test-tester has been replaced by p5
 -test-simple and has subports p5.10-p5.20.

 It is not in the current graveyard list but is returned by the suggested
 list generation script so I assume it has been manually removed.

 After adding the line
 {{{
 p5-test-tester                                  0.109.0_3
 }}}
 to p5-graveyard and running portindex


 {{{
 $ port info p5.10-test-tester (gets info from p5-test-tester)
 p5.10-test-tester @0.109.0_1 (perl)
 Replaced by:          p5.10-test-simple

 Description:          this port is only a stub and has been made obsolete
 by p5.10-test-simple
 Homepage:             http://www.macports.org/

 Library Dependencies: perl5.10
 Platforms:            darwin
 License:              Artistic-1 GPL
 Maintainers:          nomaintainer at macports.org
 }}}

 but


 {{{
 $ port info p5.8-test-tester (gets info from p5-graveyard)
 p5.8-test-tester @0.109.0_3 (perl)
 Replaced by:          p5.16-test-tester

 Description:          this port is only a stub and has been made obsolete
 by p5.16-test-tester
 Homepage:             http://www.macports.org/

 Platforms:            darwin
 License:              unknown
 Maintainers:          nomaintainer at macports.org

 }}}

 Again where p5-test-tester and p5-graveyard have common subports, p5-test-
 tester is overriding.
