Thanks all, I think i'm going to have to check out tinderbox. It's going to be less of a pain to have an ongoing QA process then it is to maintain this the way I want to. I would be happy using the freebsd provided packages, but they are either not compiled the way I would like them. If tinderbox doesn't workout the way that I would like, then I will likely build my own system which will use a combo of freebsd provided packages, and self made packages.
