The ports tree can tell you all about dependencies. You may have missed the use of the ports tree in post number 9 above. I used it to count dependencies for you, so that you didn't have to post page after page of them here.
Had I not shovelled the output of the
full-run-depends target into wc(1), you would have seen a tsort(1)-compatible package list for each port.
For more on what the ports tree make(1) targets can do for you, see the ports(7) and bsd.port.mk(5) man pages. There's a great deal of information available.
