Assuming you're tracking -current sources, it's usually possible to just run the published binary packages from mirrors on top of your own base builds. If library bumps happened, the packages might take a while to catch up, though. What I do is I build a release with patches I'm interested in (my own or other people's). After upgrading my machines to that release I try `pkg_add -u`. If that complains about libraries, I just wait a day or two for a new set of packages to come out and try again. Sometimes I cheat and compile the missing library in a slightly backdated src checkout, or fetch it from a system that happens to have a copy of the right .so file. If all that is too complicated, or if you want -stable instead of -current, try mtier.
