This doesn't help for *full* bulk builds until problems mentioned by
Greg are not resolved, i.e. naming binaries built with non-default
options and sets of options for full bulk builds listed in a package's
Makefile. For all others distbb/pkg_summary-utils need only a few changes.

How can I do the following with pbulk or something?

distbb -p 'editors/emacs:PKG_OPTIONS.emacs=xaw~-gtk~-dbus~-svg~-xft2
           editors/emacs:PKGNAME=emacs-dflt-23.1b'

Think about changing PKGNAME with something that changes the binary name
only.
