Me neither, but then I noticed most new servers come with two NICs, so I put a cheap-ish 10/100 switch in and put all the boxes on a private network not accessible from the internet. You can run NFS on only those inside interfaces and nfs mount your /usr/src, /usr/obj, and /usr/ports through the private network. It's very very handy, and very fast; build once on one server then do your "make installkernel" and "make installworld" on each machine. Works very well...
