Sort of.

Take the current state of the perl5 Apache module port :

DEPENDS_TARGET= patch
DEPENDS=        ${PORTSDIR}/www/apache
BUILD_DEPENDS=  perl5.003:${PORTSDIR}/lang/perl5  
RUN_DEPENDS=    perl5.003:${PORTSDIR}/lang/perl5

I want to always do a "make patch" on ${PORTSDIR}/www/apache, since I need
the source in order to build my module.  I still want to do a 'make
install' if perl5 isn't found though.

I guess what I need is something like this:

DEPENDS=	${PORTSDIR}/www/apache:patch
BUILD_DEPENDS=	perl5.003:${PORTSDIR}/lang/perl5:install
