Okay, I played at this, and found that it will only happen when symlinks
are involved.  That is, I have a ports tree checkout out in my home
directory on freefall.  "echo $HOME" returns /home/marcus.  However, "ls
-l /home" shows that /home points to /d/home.  If I set ${PORTSDIR} to
be /home/marcus/src/ports on freefall, I will get this loop (basically,
it duplicates every port in the dependency chain), and thus exhaust
/bin/sh.  However, if I set ${PORTSDIR} to /d/home/marcus/src/ports, I
get a proper run of package-depends yielding 114 dependencies.

To give you an idea the difference.  With ${PORTSDIR} set to
/home/marcus/src/ports:

# cd ${PORTSDIR}/x11-toolkits/gtk20
# make package-depends | wc -l
   33
# setenv PORTSDIR /d/home/marcus/src/ports
# make package-depends | wc -l
   15

Hope this helps.

Joe
