Deja vu on -chat... The key phrase in what I wrote was "excluding
what's already installed."  fetch-recursive fetches everything which
is a waste of time and bandwidth.  But as DES pointed out, porteasy
can do what I wanted (though it still prints the results in
alphabetical order, I prefer Gentoo's output which is in order of what
will be installed).
