upgrade: split upgrading dependencies into a separate proc, and use
it to make sure that before new ports are installed during upgrade,
their dependencies are upgraded.

Now that's just fantastic! Thanks.
I'm a bit more apprehensive about the awesomeness of this.
Is there some check which ensures that upgrading the dependency doesn't
break the app that's updated?
I already know the answer is no and that this is unlikely to happen. For those of us using macports for packaging though, a switch to turn this off
would be welcome (please). Preferably in macports.conf
"recursive_upgrade true/false" sounds nice :-)

'man port' mentions -n, which should still work here, otherwise I'd call
that a bug.
Thanks. This is much better than nothing, but is there some way to set it so that I don't need to remember every time I upgrade?
alias port="port -n" is not the answer :-)
