If you want, you can follow these instructions:

I had to bootstrap a Google Summer of Code student with a 10.0-CURRENT ISO,
and had him install 600 binary packages from one of the pkgng mirrors, and
it worked out.

The pkgng mirror won't be necessary once all the pkgng build infrastructure
is fully online and building packages.
