I used to have poudriere jails based on a minor version like you have, but ended up in a simplified setup, building ports only on 10.0-RELEASE and installing them on 10.1 or 10.2 and 10-STABLE. I think the official packages are also built based on 10.0-RELEASE . This mostly works, except for a port like virtualbox-ose-kmod, which causes a kernel crash when built on 10.0-RELEASE and run on 10.2. So after each ports upgrade when noticing that pkg is reinstalling virtualbox-ose-kmod, I re-build this one from ports on a target host, otherwise the next reboot will end up crashing on loading a vboxdrv kernel module during startup.
