The entire base OS, excepting the kernel and kernel modules.

Same answer.

AFAIK, the best doc of this is the top of /usr/src/Makefile.

I suppose that you're using the language of the installer and I'm
sorry to say I'm unsure what that means, unless it's referring to
installing more or fewer packages (or ports), and "make buildworld"
has nothing to do with those.

But you CAN build and install more or less than the "base OS", by
using a custom /etc/make.conf, for instance, using NO_SENDMAIL; see
/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf and make.conf(5) manpage.
