I believe he meant the situation when you have to deploy the same software
on many machines. In this case you can do:
	master# cd /usr/ports/www/mozilla
	master# make package clean

	slave0# pkg_add /usr/ports/packages/www/mozilla-x.y.tgz
	slave1# pkg_add /usr/ports/packages/www/mozilla-x.y.tgz
	...
	slaveN# pkg_add /usr/ports/packages/www/mozilla-x.y.tgz

And save N * (time to compile huge mozilla) for something more productive.
