I've gone through the uninstall process again.

The only thing I can see in /Library/Receipts is

com.adobe.Reader

When I run the installer, I get to the Install step and then click the
 "Upgrade" button. The installer gets to the "Finishing Installation"
 step (about 90% of the way through the progress bar) however then it
 stops.

Follow the uninstall instructions in the FAQ, but also remove the  
MacPorts receipt in /Library/Receipts. Then try installing the Tiger  
version again. If it gets stuck again, tell us exactly where.
