You can also install the ezjail port, then it's just a "ifconfig XXX alias ...; ezjail-admin create -i hostname IP; /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ezjail start hostname" (you can even have templates for specific jail-"flavors"). > Yes, I always have a few jails around built the "canonical" > way described in the manpage, but I always have trouble > building some ports.

I even have my desktop in a jail (requires a kernel patch I want to document and offer for review as time permits), and so far I have not seen any problem. Except for my Laptop every private system is not a plain system anymore, every box is now a host for several virtual servers which just offer a special service. Very convenient from a maintenance point of view (it's more time consuming at the beginning, but then it pays of when it's done right). Every instance has perl 5.8 installed. The only report from the perl install is the symlink in /usr which can not be created (read only /usr in the jail), but this is not a hard failure, just a report. And ezjail has a config option to create the symlink in the RO /usr.
