I'm trying to upgrade phpMyAdmin from 2.11.5.2 to 3.0.0_1 but all 
attempts fail. If I try "make deinstall" I get the following result:

-------------------------------------------------------------
curlew:/usr/ports/databases/phpmyadmin# make deinstall
===>  Deinstalling for databases/phpmyadmin
===>   Deinstalling phpMyAdmin-2.11.5.2
Segmentation fault
*** Error code 139

Stop in /usr/ports/databases/phpmyadmin.
-------------------------------------------------------------

Things go wrong very early in the process, here's part of the output 
from truss:

I've tried portsdb -uf and pkgdb with the F, L and u options but still 
no joy.

I'm not sure if this is relevant but a while ago I deinstalled apache 
1.3 and php 4 but forgot to deinstall phpMyAdmin. Today I installed 
apache 2.2 with php 5 and unsuccessfully tried to deinstall the old 
phpMyAdmin before doing this. Apache and php installed OK and the old 
phpMyAdmin works but really ought to be upgraded. I tried to deinstall 
phpMyAdmin again after installing the new packages but still have the 
same problem.

What should I do to persuade the old version to go?
