Oops, teach me to read my script files more carefully! :-) Ok, the subports (dependencies) don't get rebuilt, but they do get cleaned. I suppose that's not so bad. I saw things like "Cleaning for gettext..." and files there being deleted, and just assumed it, like the ports being built explicitly, would get rebuilt. So the only thing I still feel I should propose is that `make clean' or something similar be added to the normal output of `pkg_version -c' to avoid accidents like I just had, where a port vanishes without being replaced.
