Good idea, though this does mean bringing the diffs around on a 
floppy (or bringing them in via the Net) for every install. 

Handling third-party programs that have been deemed worthy
of being part of the base install has always been a problem
for FreeBSD. There ought to be a general mechanism for handling
this case. But until such is developed, I would still REALLY
like to see a recent version of SSH in the base install. The
old one that's now in both -CURRENT and -STABLE has known bugs,
including a frustrating one related to port forwarding (which I 
use frequently).
