yaourt -Sy does it, for instance my output from today:

==> New packages:
multilib/gcc-libs-multilib 4.8.1-3 (required by gcc-multilib)
multilib/binutils-multilib 2.23.2-3 (required by gcc-multilib)
multilib/gcc-multilib 4.8.1-3 (required by dwarffortress)
multilib/lib32-llvm-amdgpu-lib-snapshot 20130403-2 (required by lib32-mesa)
multilib/lib32-glew 1.10.0-1 (required by dwarffortress)

It would be nice if these extra messages could appear in pacman's output indeed. :)

Here, I was happy to part with dwarffortress, which I never play anyway, before running the update.
