What version of portage were you using when you upgraded (post 'emerge info' please)? The reason I ask is ebuilds themselves don't do anything about removing previous versions, thats the job of portage.

wxgtk 2.4.1-r1 has been removed from portage and I can't duplicate this behavior. If anyone else has this problem, please feel free to re-open this.
