I don't insist on using pkg_summary-utils.

Just another example based on using a list of binary packages.

  # update pkg_summary(5) for binary packages stored locally
  pkg_update_summary -r /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All/pkg_summary.txt \
                        /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All

  # source summary
  pkg_src_summary > /usr/pkgsrc/pkg_src_summary.txt

  # list the packages to be rebuilt
  pkg_cmp_summary -p /usr/pkgsrc/packages/All/pkg_summary.txt \
                     /usr/pkgsrc/pkg_src_summary.txt |
  awk '$1 == "+" || $1 == "<" {print $2}' \
                     > /path/to/packages_to_be_rebuilt.txt
