Rebuilding png and perl without rebuilding a whole lot of ports
twice.

I have to portupgrade/portmaster both graphics/png and lang/perl, and these both require rebuilding all ports that depend on these two.
Question is how to do this without rebuilding all these ports twice, redundantly, as might happen if I do
portmaster -o lang/perl5.16 lang/perl5.12
Conservative:
portmaster p5-
Comprehensive (but perhaps overkill):
portmaster -r perl-
and
If you use portmaster:
portmaster -r png-
I currently have perl-threaded-5.14.1_2 .
There are a whole lot of things that I want to upgrade: seamonkey, gnash, hplip, ffmpeg, vlc and many others, so may be nice do have them done en masse, but preferably not twice each.
