I think you misunderstand.  I'm not saying make deinstall should
discriminate.  I'm saying that make deinstall should try to deinstall
the package directly referenced by the current Makefile _first_.  If an
installed package matching the PKGNAME specified by the .CURDIR
Makefile, _then_ it will try to remove all packages with the same
PKGORIGIN.

Take a look at the patch I attached to the previous email.  I'm just
changing the ordering of the new deinstall functionality, plus adding a
target that retains the new functionality in its entirety called
"deinstall-all."
