I have been doing all my port building on a nullfs mounted filesystem for that last week (about 10-20 ports so far I think), and I haven't noticed any problems as yet. It certainly doesn't panic() on mmap() anymore. Patched against null_vnops.c 1.38 (from -stable) cleanly, and works for me so far. I have yet to try fancy things with jail (using say nullfs to mount a ro filesystem that can be shared between different jails for /usr for example).
