Yes, it causes Poudriere to delete all packages before building new ones
with messages like these:

[00:00:23] Deleting RVVM-0.6.pkg: missing versioned dependency: libX11-
[00:00:23] Deleting OpenSP-1.5.2_4.pkg: missing versioned dependency: gettext-runtime-
[00:00:23] Deleting aalib-1.4.r5_14.pkg: missing versioned dependency: indexinfo-
[00:00:23] Deleting alsa-plugins-1.2.12_2.pkg: missing versioned dependency: alsa-lib-
[00:00:23] Deleting adobe-cmaps-20051217_4.pkg: missing versioned dependency: fontconfig-

rendering poudriere-devel unusable for incremential builds.
