I have certainly run into this before; as far as I can tell, it doesn't
remove inactive ports in dependency order because they're inactive, but if
that would break an inactive port it (quite reasonably) stops because of
that. Maybe -u / port uninstall inactive should have an override since it
knows that the dependent ports will be removed later... or maybe not since
something else might interrupt the remove, leaving a now invalid inactive
port.
