Sorry; I am a newbie at FreeBSD, and have never done a buildworld :-( I have 
spent lots of time on Linux, Solaris, and SCO, but this is my first cut at 
BSD.

Just from past NIX experience though, I would never rebuild an entire OS 
remotely without having someone onsite to push the On/Off switch when the 
inevitable happens :-(
