Thanks to all for the tips and ideas.  Just after I posted my
query, I noticed that somethine similar seems to be available (in
FreeBSD 5.3 and up) as a setting in /boot/device.hints.  It's
referenced in the handbook.

I think I like the rc.d idea best as it would allow one to
conveniently re-set to a known state, and it's pretty clear.

Thanks,
