Minimalist FreeBSD 4.8

AFAIK, the only thing you can do is tuning your own /etc/make.conf (template
in /etc/defaults/make.conf). Here is the interessant part :
#NO_CVS=        true    # do not build CVS
#NO_BIND=       true    # do not build BIND
[...]
#NOSHARE=       true    # do not go into the share subdir
#NOUUCP=        true    # do not build uucp related programs

But it appears to mainly apply to third-party software. There is no kind of
"binutils" or "fileutils" package in BSD : all these tools are part of the
base system and cannot be removed easily, since there maybe other parts which
rely on them.
