Oh, here,  I actually did not de-register anything.

I first run pkgdb -F. It fixed something and I answer no to "unregister 
...?".

Then, after reading /usr/ports/UPDATING
"
20100921:
   AFFECTS: users of p5-Compress-Zlib, p5-IO-Compress-*
   AUTHOR: mm@FreeBSD.org

   The p5-Compress-Zlib, p5-IO-Compress-Base, p5-IO-Compress-Zlib and
   p5-IO-Compress-Bzip2 ports have been replaced by p5-IO-Compress.
   Users of Perl 5.10 and higher do not need to install this module
   because it is already included in the standard perl distribution.

"
  I manually checked any dependencies of the cited ports (p5-...) and 
de-installed the cited ports that were actually installed here and not 
required by any other port. Later pkgdb did not make complaints anymore. 
Is this procedure probably... wrong ? :-)

As of my opinion unregister means "discarding information" but the ports 
are still installed and probably not used anymore. BUt just my opinion...
