One way that (I think it was) Sheldon pointed out to me a few months ago would be keeping your own CVS repository and vendor-importing the FreeBSD source on a regular basis. The regular vendor-import is quite time-consuming though :( Also, I'm not really sure if CVS would allow having two vendor branches (say, RELENG_4 and RELENG_5) and two corresponding working branches (your changes to RELENG_4 and your changes to RELENG_5, which might be *way* different).
