 What Matt Cutts is recommending is basically WordPress' default state. No
 changes are needed to implement that.

 Links within your own site don't get nofollowed, and links you create
 (like your Bookmarks) are basically links you're vouching for as being
 okay, so they don't get nofollowed either. User contributed links, like
 links in comments and such, do get nofollowed, since you didn't create
 them.
