I meant pkg_delete -a in my last mail, not pkg_deinstall -a. 
pkg_deinstall is related to portupgrade, whereas pkg_delete is part of 
the base. You can also rm -rf /usr/local /var/db/pkg to hose everything 
by hand. This is one of the nice side effects of the base/ports separation.

No, if you have to reinstall you can keep all the bootloader stuff. But 
there is no reason you should have to if you did not rebuild world with 
altivec enabled.
