I asked Ralf S. Engelschall about this, he recommended using
"openpkg build". It recursively determines package dependencies.

Citing him:
| For instance, if you want to see what packages have to be
| rebuilt (and in which order) for a particular instance /foo if you
| update package "bar", run "/foo/bin/openpkg build -g bar".
