 MacPorts v.1.9.1 on Snow Leopard (problem also occurred at least back in
 1.9.0):

 When multiple packages, or a pseudo-package that resolves to multiple
 packages, are listed for port deps, it no longer lists all of the
 dependencies. Instead, it just reports the dependencies of the first
 package in the list, without even saying the name of the package.

 Note that in a previous version of MacPorts, it used to report the
 dependencies of each package, preceded by the line "Full name: <package-
 name>", separated by lines of the form "--". Yes, I have a script that
 parses that format. Could we please get that back? Thanks!

 Here some examples of the current broken output:
