I think the simple answer (but other may want to confirm) is to not use 
`ocamlfind remove` at all. Once you removed the directory you are done. 
`ocamlfind remove` doesn't do anything more than removing the META file which 
you already destroyed.

There should be no problem with that. You should really see ocamlfind as 
something that simply reads and interprets META file wherever they are. For 
example all my packages are usable with ocamlfind but I install them and remove 
them without using `ocamlfind` *at all* (I use opam's .install file, which opam 
handles automatically).  

Best,

Daniel
