Unless, of course, the default options used in generating the FreeBSD pkgs aren't suitable for the OPs use case. If you can a ports tree that only gets security updates, then you can try tracking the 2014Q1 branch. That, is, after all, exactly what that branch was intended to provide. You can either check it out through SVN and build you own, or use pre-compiled packages from pkg.freebsd.org -- or (and this tends to be easier if you're tracking 2014Q1) a mixture of the two.
