I do just that (except for qmail). I install into (for example)
/pkgs/daemontools-0.70
/pkgs/qmailanalog-0.70
/pkgs/gzip-1.2.4
...
Then use graft (a stow like utility but better in my opion. 'cause I
wrote it) to make a symlink tree into /usr/local/bin etc.
Graft is written in perl and is available from
ftp://ftp.eserv.com.au/pub/tools/graft
