That'll remove the uninstalled distfiles, but not the old versions of
installed distfiles. Thanks for reminding me about "uninstalled" I'd
forgotten about that; it solves half my problem.

I always upgrade with the -u flag to remove the installed image of
older versions, but I want to remove the source tarballs for these old
versions as well. I think I remember this question coming up a while
ago but can't remember if there was ever a solution plus I can't find
the original email.
