Yes. So one can enable it selectively. When in a situation where you are
not updating pkgsrc tree, just adding packages as you realize they are
needed, I think reuse of the scans may be safe. When you update the
repository or modify deps yourself, one may want to re-scan.

However my problem is, when I set it to reuse scan results, it still goes
ahead and re-scans. See the trace in my first post.
