Well, if you NFS mount /usr/{obj,src}, you don't really need to "push"
them. I think I sketched how I do this between 3 - 10 days ago, so that
should be in the -stable archives. And others have discussed this sort
of thing, as well.
Depending on the number of the boxes (and their ability to netboot), you
may find alternatives, such as some of the stuff that Alfred Perlstein
has posted about, to your liking. Doug Ambrisko put something similar
together here which I've used (and hacked a bit).
Cheers,
david
