Don't clean the build, then:
make all-depends-list | while read DIR; do
	cd ${DIR}
	configlog=$(make -V WRKSRC)/config.log
	if test -f ${configlog}; then
		echo ${configlog}
	fi
done | xargs ${EDITOR}

Then have fun finding the problem in the logs. Without knowing what to look 
for, that can be tedious.

    and never get to the software part.
