I was going to say this. Because my build times have increased so 
massively on my underpowered server I've switched to doing incremental 
builds. Set WITH_META_MODE=yes in /etc/src-env.conf and add 
kld_list="filemon" to /etc/rc.conf with a kldload filemon.

Doing this makes builds take a couple of minutes on average rather than 
12 hours.

pkgbase I have been monitoring the mailing list, but I haven't actually 
tried it yet. The problems with /etc merging makes me twitchy.
