It's in the errata list on www.freebsd.org but rather than manually
editing it you can extract the important things like this:
awk '$1 ~ "=" {print $1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7,$8,$9,$10,$11}' /etc/rc.conf
..and redirect it to a file and then keep a backup of it until you fix the
problem. I'm sure you could use sed to do this to but I don't know sed
very well yet. :)
