I assume it can be used to build a dependency tree from packages in the 
AUR.  Although, you need to go through the hassle of downloading all the 
PKGBUILDs anyway so you might as well build them as you go.  Also, the 
method for finding the directory to build in is a hack... find all 
directories in $SRCROOT that match the $dep and try running makepkg in 
all of them.  That is a bit ugly...
