freedt is supposed to be a reimplementation of the daemontools package,
but the latter does not ship the argv0 and recordio executables.  Also,
the freedt README says "These tools almost certainly aren't production
quality yet".  Thus I'd either use @conflict or remove/rename the freedt
executables.
