Aha, I see. My apologies if that was a FAQ.

Hmm, now I know (thanks to indiscriminate use of grep ;-)
that /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.port.mk contains the central build
targets.

For the record

make all-depends-list

seems to print a more concise list of dependent ports,
and works even after port installation ( fetch-recursive-list
doesn't).

Many thanks
