Gentoo lets you do all of the tweaks mentioned here within the system package manager, so you still get security updates for your tweaked build. You can also install Gentoo on top of another system via Gentoo Prefix for use as a userland packages manager:

Yes, Gentoo is great. I'm just saying that for me it was too much of a temptation.
