For this reason, as to myself, I'll build a chrooted
environment. There's too many possible traps (local hacks) in my
desktop when build/test ports. (Oh well, I know you're talking about
the world, not ports. I want to say is what obrien said "virgin"
environment/src/everything)

EXAMPLES section in jail(8) shows a simply script to build a perfect
test bed.
