 I had a chance to take a closer look into this, using output from
 "make -dA".
 
 For nspr, the dependency chain is: mousetweaks->gnome-panel
 ->evolution-data-server->nss->nspr.  In the nss make file, there is an
 explicit API dependency set:
 
 BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.nspr+=    nspr>=4.4.1nb2
 
 However, the buildlink3.mk file for nspr looks like so (after its
 update on November 10th):
 
 BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.nspr+=    nspr>=4.8.2.5
 
 That being the case, should nss have its PKGREVISION and buildlink3.mk
 entries bumped to account for the change?
 
 The *xcb* packages get pulled in because of this dependency chain:
 mousetweaks->gnome-panel->libwnck & gnome-desktop->startup-notification
 ->libxcb & xcb-util.
 
 The *xcb* dependencies were added when startup-notification was bumped
 to version 0.10 on November 8th.  startup-notification's buildlink3.mk
 file still has the following entries, though:
 
 BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.startup-notification+=   startup-notification>=0.5
 BUILDLINK_ABI_DEPENDS.startup-notification+=   startup-notification>=0.8nb1
 
 So my nspr question applies equally to startup-notification.
