This is what I'd prefer (just diffs).  I _never_ run precompiled binaries,
and generally the stuff in ported is out of date, or compiled with
funky options anyway.  With diffs, you can often apply them over newer
versions, or at least see what changes were made to an older version
of the package.

Diffs are smaller, and it's really no big deal to build any package you
need yourself...cpu's are fast enough that it's not a real time consuming
process.
