Ok, I gave this a shot, and it didn't do what I expected; perhaps my
assumptions were wrong.

For the curious: a typescript of my effort:

  http://www.numachi.com/~reichert/misc/typescript.portupgrade.1036028569

From this, I only see Building '/usr/ports/www/mozilla'; it never
seems to actually go though the dependancy list for other builds.

Have I misinvoked it?
