Hi folks, I'm back! Very happy with my new build. Best news is the mouse
pointer glitch is gone.

I followed the steps above EXCEPT I had to install portupgrade between
steps 4 and 5 and I used batch mode in step 7 (make -DBATCH install).
Step 1 took 30 minutes, step 5 took about two hours and I let step 7 run
unattended all night. No glitches this time. Did fifth toe and office
the following night.

This week I'll write up the process in more detail on the Open Slate
wiki.
