It might require reinventing the logic used by the ports system
Makefiles. Or maybe there's a way to run make config-recursive but get
dialog to immediately cancel any config screens that appear (redirect
input from /dev/null?). Detect whether the output of that is not empty.
'make config-recursive' was already mentioned, but portupgrade has the
-c and -C options, and running all the config screens before starting a
build is automatic for portmaster.
