In order to satisfy dependencies of the port you're building, our
framework usually goes ahead and builds them from the ports tree.

With FETCH_PACKAGES set, `pkg_add ${FETCH_PACKAGES} ...' is used to
install prebuilt packages instead, that is to avoid building all
dependencies from source.

FETCH_PACKAGES=-Dsnap can be used to do ports development on snapshot
and/or current.
