In dependency calculations, pull in build time dependencies
that are not strictly required. This defaults to ´n´ for
installation actions, meaning they will not be installed, and
´y´ for the --depclean action, meaning they will not be
removed. This setting can be added to EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS
(see make.conf(5)) and later overridden via the command line.
