I use a simple Perl script called create-topic-branches. It can be found here:

http://gist.github.com/275033

When it is run, it will print the "git branch" commands needed to create the topic branches. Either copy and paste the commands for the branches you are interested in, or do something like this:

create-topic-branches next..pu | grep bg/ | sh

which will create local branches for any of my own branches that are currently included in 'pu'.
