Is bootstrapping on an already bootstrapped system not supported?

When I tried to bootstrap but forgot to remove the prefix I got:

===> Installing for bootstrap-mk-files-20080415
ERROR: bootstrap-mk-files-20080415 is already installed - perhaps an older 
version?
ERROR: If so, you may use either of:
ERROR:     - "pkg_delete bootstrap-mk-files-20080415" and 
"/foo/pkgsrc/bootstrap/work/bin/bmake reinstall"
...
