If you want to rebuild the world, basicly, you shouldn't exclude *anything*.
Oh, it's possible that excluding games and setting NO_GAMES in /etc/make.conf
would work, but mostly attempting to do so just results in missing dependencies
for the base system.
If you're targetting very small form-factor machines, say a 128MB compact flash
card, you might want to look into NetBSD instead of FreeBSD.
