That's not actually a fix. You should revert it, then change it to two different commands a - delete for the real folder, and a 'file delete' for the symlink. The reason this isn't a fix is it will not delete the symlink this way. I'll commit a fix to trunk for the 'delete' command in a few days when I get home from vacation.

If I understand Guido's suggestion, the workaround is to the Portfile, not to trunk, right? Who wants to fix it?
Looks like you committed a fix already:
http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/changeset/24928
Why did that necessitate a revision bump, by the way? If I already had ncurses successfully installed using a version of MacPorts where delete works properly (<=1.4.3?), then there is no need for me to install it again. And if I had a version of MacPorts with the new "file delete" implementation (>1.4.3?), then wouldn't I have been completely unable to install ncurses in the first place?
