I don't think there's anything which does exactly what you want, but you 
could start with 'make pretty-print-build/run-depends-list' and script 
your way through from there. Since what you're trying to do is what the 
ports infrastructure already does, you could always take a look at the 
code. bsd.ports.mk is what you want, I think.
