I don't think they have to coexist. I used -s a billion times (well, every single time makepkg complained about missing deps), and I didn't use -b once. And I would think I am not alone in that case. Anyway, if you move that code from makepkg to put it in another script, it doesn't make any sense to keep that option in makepkg. Just have that script call "find" and then "makepkg" (with your --asdeps fix). Any chances you could investigate if it can fit in makeworld? Otherwise in a new script on its own? This script would probably sit better next to makeworld in abs git repo and abs package rather than with pacman/makepkg. Just in case, abs git repo is there : http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=abs.git;a=summary
