You might have noticed a thread on the mailing list called "ports system
woes". The submitter pointed out an inefficiency in pkg_delete routine,
that parses the whole /var/db/pkg over and over again for every
dependency of a package being removed.

Attached is a patch by rdivacky that implements the idea of looking up
all the values in a single pass over /var/db/pkg content.

I hacked a slightly better patch that coveres a part of pkg_add too..

please review/test on:

        www.vlakno.cz/~rdivacky/pkg_tools.patch

comments, benchmarks more than welcome!

A) this is massively cool stuff, thanks for taking this on. :)
B) you should probably do two versions of the patch, one with style(9)-only changes, and one without. The former makes it much easier to review the actual changes, and would speed your path to getting it in the tree.
