By following the documentation. It is written at:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cutting-edge.html

- especially chapter 21.4 "Using make world". mergemaster(8) is the key. 
It should preserve every change in the configuration of standard FreeBSD 
files you had done (if used correctly). All others are not touched.

Hope that helps

Marc
