I found a mkcabundle program at http://www.mail-archive.com/modssl- 
users@modssl.org/msg16980.html which fetches the NSS data via cvs and  
creates the file locally.

The port seems to fetch a lot of source files just to get the data  
and the script to convert the data, but has the advantage of the  
ports infrastructure letting you know when it needs updating.
