Of course, this is only true if the repo package version matches the 
port version. If port version is newer, you're still building the 
dependencies.

I've always hoped for an option in Poudriere that would allow the option 
to build *ONLY* ports with non-default OPTIONS configured and simply 
fetch whatever the latest repo package versions are for everything else. 
That would probably save me about 20-30 build hours per month, which 
would certainly be nice.
