I don't think it does.  It *does* clean the flags in the port's build  
area that indicate what the port thinks its own state is; if the  
"installed" flag is set there but the port wasn't actually installed  
(i.e. isn't entered in the registry), you would get the error you  
did.  Based on experience from freebsd ports I would do a full clean  
and try again in that case.
