If you explicitly list each interface in /etc/rc.conf (like this):

network_interfaces="fxp0 lo0" # List of network interfaces (or "auto").

Then be sure that 1) you have lo0 in the list (I did not)
		  2) you have:
			ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.255.255.0"
		     in there too.

Note that #2 should be in /etc/defaults/rc.conf so you should not really
need it.

AlanC {who had disabled interfaces by not having them listed in the 
	network_interfaces list, but also disabled lo0 at the same time}
