On my system, the program pkg_version can double its speed simply by replacing "make -V PKGNAME" by "make BEFOREPORTMK=yes -V PKGNAME" in src/usr.sbin/pkg_install/version. Basically what it does is to tell "make" to process only about half of bsd.port.mk. It seems to me that with some clever use like this, certain commands like "make all-package-depends" could selectively read only parts of bsd.port.mk.
