"clean" doesn't remove installed files, just as "uninstall" doesn't  
remove distfiles.

This is your hint right here:  you have the port "texlive_texmf- 
minimal" installed.

> Tottie:/<1>local% port installed texlive

This will only catch texlive itself.  "port installed texlive*" (which  
I think I suggested before) would be more helpful.
