portmaster's root and leaf ports

Hi,

On an empty ports system, i've installed :

    sysutils/portconf
    x11/xorg
    devel/glib20
    x11/kde3
    sysutils/portmaster

Now I expect only portconf and portmaster to be in the "Root ports (No
dependencies, not depended on)" section of portmaster, but I find this :

# portmaster -l
===>>> Root ports (No dependencies, not depended on)
===>>> libassuan-0.6.10
===>>> libtool-1.5.22_2
===>>> nasm-0.98.39,1
===>>> portconf-1.2
===>>> portmaster-1.8
===>>> qmake-3.3.6
===>>> unzip-5.52_2
===>>> 7 root ports

And only xorg and kde3 in the "Leaf ports (Have dependencies, not
depended on)" section, but I find this :

===>>> Leaf ports (Have dependencies, not depended on)
===>>> automake-1.5_2,1
===>>> automake-1.9.6
===>>> bison-1.75_2,1
===>>> gnupg-devel-1.9.20_1
===>>> help2man-1.36.4_1
===>>> imake-6.9.0
===>>> kde-3.5.3
===>>> libdts-0.0.2_2
===>>> p5-type1inst-0.6.1_2
===>>> pkg_tree-1.1_1
===>>> teTeX-base-3.0_9
===>>> xorg-6.9.0
===>>> 12 leaf ports

What's going on here ? Aren't these all dependencies that should have
been tracked ? (shouldn't they be in the Trunk or Branch sections ?)
