Ah, sorry, now I see that there is indeed an option "--no-build" there.

But still, one could make use of an option like “--with-build” for the rdependents command! :-)

A use case:

	If one tries to figure out whether a certain port tree is fully distributable
	one doesn’t want to be surprised by a suddenly non-distributable build-dependency somewhere in there.

That is why I am so pernickety. :-)
