Ports gripe

Riddle me this, Batman:

So, why would the ports system (portupgrade for example) go to the trouble
of building a port dependency and _then_ (and only then) would it check for
a previously insalled version, bitch and gripe, and then exit?  Portupgrade
and friends do a clean every time, so this build process was a complete
waste of time.
