One of the nice things I like about FreeBSD (and I daresay I'm not
alone in this) is that when I install it, I know that I'll get a
kernel with a corresponding full and functional userland.  I see the
packaging of this `base system' as a bunch of (meta)packages as the
thin edge of the wedge---pretty soon FreeBSD will resemble the
hodge-podge collection of different (often conflicting) packages that
Linux is.
