To session's question, yup there is and it's stupid easy. Illogically easy, in fact. The trick is that instead of masking your pattern just drop a no stroke/fill rectangle behind (or above, I forget) everything and then drag it all into the swatches pallete. Your pattern will magically crop to the size of the rectangle without breaking the art within. This works for CS2 so your milage may vary.
