portupgrade of linux-tiff-3.6.1_3 to _4 fails

[Nicolas Blais]

On all of my computers the upgrade went fine, except for my *cursed* R3000 
laptop.  I get the following error:

*** Error code 1

I tried to pkg_delete -f linux-tiff-3.6.1_3 and make install the new version 
but I still get the same message.  I googled around to find that this is an 
rpm error and that I could force it by giving the '--oldpackage' flag to rpm 
but I don't know how to do that without a hack to bsd.port.mk.

Any solutions?
