 The new behavior also caused problems with java ports and so a mod
 was made so all ports in /java fall under the old behavior.  It never occured 
 to me that people did not want any build tools on their system.   I'll come 
 up with a knob for options to revert back to the old way for all ports, what 
 to call it though?  WITH_BUILD_DEPENDS_ARE_LEAVES seem ok?

 > b) -ui doesn't work:
 
 -ui does work, just works differently now, like this:
 
 portmanager -u -ui
 
 portmanager x11/gnome2 -ui
 
 I needed an interactive option for single port upgrades as well so just 
 changed -ui's behavior a little bit. It is documented in the man page btw.
 
 Note to committer: please close this PR as "noted", I'll submit a patch under 
 a new PR in a few days with the knob the submitter requested.
 
 To Helge Oldach, better to email me directly when there is no patch involved.
