In 1993 I was tired of manually customising generic
FreeBSD to what I needed, so I wrote & still use
        http://berklix.com/~jhs/bin/.csh/customise
After cd /usr/src;make install
I run customise to apply all my outstanding src/ & ports/
patches & ports preferences etc from my public tree.
        http://www.berklix.com/~jhs/src/bsd/fixes/FreeBSD/
& run src install again & then variations of
        cd /usr/ports ; make BERKLIX_MINIMAL=YES BERKLIX_CLIENT=YES
        make BERKLIX_SERVER=YES BERKLIX_GATE=YES BERKLIX_AMBITIOUS=YES install
I'm doing it on Alpha4 now. (Yup I know 5 is out, but ports/ takes
days to build).

Cheers,
Julian
