Is this an example of what you were talking about?

$ ldd -r /opt/csw/bin/awesome | grep libX11
        libX11.so.6 =>   /opt/csw/X11/lib/libX11.so.6
        libX11.so.4 =>   /usr/lib/libX11.so.4

Perhaps we should have checkpkg throw an error when this happens?
(...and potentially offer a useful suggestion)
