As far as I know FreeBSD does not roll custom distfiles because of
very obvious issues with authenticity of the files. If you create a
custom distfile from let's say editors/vim as you suggest then who is
going to trust you to provide authentic sources of someone else's
work? Now when everything is separate and downloadable and verifiable
individually from the upstream vendor there's no problem with
authenticity.
Supposedly the current patch level is approaching 1000 patches and vim
7.4 is supposed to come out before that happens.
That will reset to number of patches to zero, so at least it won't
continually get worse.
