In some cases, the named packages failed to install the first time (math/gnumeric and editors/abiword), and in other cases desired dependencies didn't install (devel/nasm and sysutils/coreutils, for instance).

I need some of those build dependencies for other things like, for instance, 
cross-compiling Haiku and cross-compiling Linux toolchains, or other FreeBSD 
ports.

Is there anything I can specify to install those build dependencies, and how do 
I go through /var/synth/live-packages/All and pkg info -a to install those 
packages that failed to install without missing something?

Synth runs faster and more gracefully than portmaster, but portmaster installed 
everything that it built.

Maybe something along the lines of pkg install -g * ? I'm not sure, but -g lets you do a glob pattern.
