I remember trying that back in 2008 or so. Awesome system, but the lack of hardware support really hurt back at the time. I particularly liked the fact that OS-provided packages and user-istalled packages were two distinct and separate things, thanks to the pkgsrc black magic. It allowed for things like upgrading the underlying OS without touching the programs installed and vice versa. I tried creating a similar frankenstein system by using pkgsrc on a mostly base install of Slackware but I didn't go very far (tbh, I was quite junior at the time). It looked like a neat idea at the time though.
