I just looked at it.  I really don't think it is worth the big effort 
that we put into registering ports, because a make clean only happens 
once or twice, unlike registering of the port which happens for every 
single dependency.

I think it would be better to modify portupgrade to use find to delete 
all the work in all the ports.
