 * I would like to make a proposal for a new bsd.port.mk dependency 
 * variable, EXTRACT_DEPENDS.

>From the latest handbook:

===
BUILD_DEPENDS

This variable specifies executables this port requires to build. Like
RUN_DEPENDS, it is a list of `exec:dir' pairs. For example,

      BUILD_DEPENDS=   unzip:${PORTSDIR}/archivers/unzip

will check for an executable called `unzip', and descend into the
archivers/unzip subdirectory of your ports tree to build and install
it if it is not found.

Note that `build' here means everything from extracting to
compilation. The dependency is checked from within the extract target.

So it's there. :)
