New "file delete" implementation breaks ncurses

After the changes to the "file delete" implementation, the  
installation of
ncurses fails because it tries to follow the target of a symbolic link.


By reversing the order of the arguments from

delete ${destroot}${prefix}/share ${destroot}${prefix}/lib/terminfo

into

delete ${destroot}${prefix}/lib/terminfo ${destroot}${prefix}/share

ncurses installs correctly (lib/terminfo is a symbolic link to ../ 
share/terminfo).


I have already submitted a bug report through Trac
(http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/11878)
but it doesn't have been reviewed for too long.
