>Description:
When pbulk encounters an unknown package, the complete bulk build stops.

The problem is that the resolution stage itself takes quite long,
so it would be preferable to let pbulk build the packages it could
resolve and just skip the ones depending on the unknown package.

>How-To-Repeat:
Add "DEPENDS+= foo-[0-9]*:../../bar/foo" to any package, put that package
into /limited_list and start a limited pbulk build.
See:
Scanning...
. 1/1
Resolving...
Scanning...
Cannot change directory to "/usr/pkgsrc/bar/foo".
.... 4/4
pbulk-scan: Scan failed for bar/foo
Resolving...
Scanning...
Cannot change directory to "/usr/pkgsrc/bar/foo".
.. 2/2
pbulk-scan: Scan failed for bar/foo
Resolving...
Scanning...
Cannot change directory to "/usr/pkgsrc/bar/foo".
. 1/1
pbulk-scan: Scan failed for bar/foo
Resolving...
Unresolvable dependencies found, exiting:
bar/foo

Compare to directly putting "foo/bar" into /limited_list:
Scanning...
Cannot change directory to "/usr/pkgsrc/foo/bar".
. 1/1
pbulk-scan: Scan failed for foo/bar
Resolving...
Building...

Which is in my eyes preferable.
