I would like to see an option to openpkg that would extract the options for
a package from the ~/.openpkg/build file, then generate the appropriate
commands to build from the SRC/package directory.  I think this would be
very useful when doing modification.  Now I create a build.sh file in the
SRC directory to make it easier to build, but it would be less error-prone
to do this with something like:

        openpkg build -ba packagename | sh

It would probably be necessary to be able do specify options such as
--nodeps as well since it's entirely possible that some requirements might
not be met yet (e.g. MTA building sudo).
