Just for reference,

make NO_CVS=true NO_BIND=true NO_FORTRAN=true NO_I4B=true NO_LPR=true\
 NO_MAILWRAPPER=true NO_MODULES=true NO_OBJC=true NO_SENDMAIL=true\
 NO_SHAREDOCS=true NO_TCSH=true NO_X=true NOCRYPT=true NOGAMES=true\
 NOINFO=true NOLIBC_R=true NOPERL=true\
 NOPROFILE=true NOSECURE=true NOMAN=true NOSHARE=true NOUUCP=true\
 NOPORTDOCS=true DESTDIR=/data/miniroot installworld

(ie. all the NO_xxx flags documented in /etc/defaults/make.conf, apart
from those relating to SSH/SSL) gives a total of 57.4Mbyte (as at
FreeBSD4.4).  This isn't quite enough for your 64M target, as that doesn't
include a kernel or your application, but it usefully disposes of some big
chunks of stuff.
