Is there a way to figure out which deps would have to be build from sources

I use a simple script (mp-distributable) which allows "port echo" expansion, like:
$ mp-distributable depof:kmymoney4


The script looks like this:
$ cat $(which mp-distributable)
#!/bin/bash
# mp-distributable

: ${MP_PREFIX:="/opt/local"}
: ${MP_SVNTRUNK:="${MP_PREFIX}/var/macports/sources/svn.macports.org/trunk"}
: ${MP_SVNBASE:="${MP_SVNTRUNK}/base"}


if [[ $# -eq 0 || $1 == "help" ]]
then
    echo "Usage example:"
    echo "mp-distributable zlib"
    exit 1
fi
PORTS=$(port -q echo "$@")
for PORT in $PORTS;do
    ${MP_SVNBASE}/portmgr/jobs/port_binary_distributable.tcl -v "$PORT"
done
