After compiling and installing all ports I'm using I just do something
like this:

# mkdir PKGDIR
# cd PKGDIR
# ls /var/db/pkg > ../list
# while read name ; do
  pkg_create -Rnb $name
  done < ../list

this gives some 1000++ packages;

# scp * toSomeOtherHost:.


and can install all package ther by just do pkg_add(1M);
