Log out and log back in again.
bash is being silly. You see, rather than search your $PATH every
time you type a command, it maintains a table of where it found the
command "abiword" last time (before you uninstalled it). This is
intended to be for performance. In your case, it's just not being
smart about updating its internal table when things change.
