My p5-FreeBSD-Portindex can generate a shlib index -- all of the
LIB_DEPENDS for a port, and the LIB_DEPENDS or the LIB_DEPENDS and so on
recursively.  This will take account of your current options settings only.

Unfortunately, while having a LIB_DEPENDS chain like that is a first
step, it isn't accurate: there exist ports where there is a LIB_DEPENDS
chain, but no actual dependency on the shlib in question.  There are
also ports without a LIB_DEPENDS chain that will depend on the library
in question.

	Cheers,

	Matthew
