Arch from souce (pacbuilder or srcpac or ???)

I've been playing with gentoo for a bit and find the idea of compiling from source (with custom flags) rather appealing.  I began searching the forums and found that there are several helpers out there to automate the process including pacbuilder and srcpac.  I'd like to hear from folks who have done this - which helper app do you like and why?  Any tips/gotcha's etc.?
