To be safe, you should always make distclean before updating from svn (even without fpmake, since directories or units may get moved, which then won't be cleaned anymore after the update). Now, for a while make distclean didn't work properly either for fpmake-based directories, but that should have been fixed in the mean time.

I don't think you have another choice to fix your current checkout than by manually deleting all fpmake executables (find  . -name fpmake -print0 | xargs -0 rm).
