What you report looks like exactly the issues we used to have with teTeX. Part of texlive is probably not cleaned. Best way is to figure out the part that doesn't obey DESTDIR correctly, and explain that to the texlive people, and get them to put a new version out.
It's a section called "dialog", which is a tool for automating ncurses type interfaces if i remember correctly? I told them about my problem, and they said that it works okay for them, but does ports work differently than just setting --prefix ("yes" I hear you scream?. Probably). Here is my communcation with the texlive guys: http://tug.org/pipermail/tex-live/2007-April/013445.html
Good luck.
I'll need it! -- Best Regards Edd --------------------------------------------------- http://students.dec.bournemouth.ac.uk/ebarrett/
