After a little review: For the awk version the embedded "sort -u" can
be removed (it is done in the PKG_ARGS part), for Stephen's version it
is necessary to cut down processing time in the following part.

It seems the processing of the not installed dependencies has not to be
done, as this target is only used in the PKG_ARGS part and is used in a
way which evaluates the result at the time of the invocation of the
pkg_create program (when the port is installed and all dependencies
should reflect what is on disk).

Bye,
Alexander.
