Some of that sounds true to my experience, for a while I've noticed while
installing a new port with portupgrade that it will install the default
dependencies before prompting with the options screen to find out which
ones I want.  For example if I do 'portupgrade -N postfix' on a fresh
system, it will first install pcre and THEN prompt me to (de)select pcre
or any of the other optional deps.

It was tired by this behavior more than year ago and it was the main reason to me to switch to portmaster. I got system bloated with unwanted dependencies when using portinstall/portupgrade. I never found what causes this in portupgrade.
