Well, you should better have sent this to freebsd-questions@freebsd.org,
since it's neither a bug report, nor a request to change something...
It's basically documented in the man page for ifconfig(1), and it's
also in the FAQ. But i suppose that's why this thing is named FAQ,
since the questions are frequently asked, and nobody bothers to read
the answers in advance. :-/
9.8. How can I setup Ethernet aliases?
Add ``netmask 0xffffffff'' to your ifconfig command-line like the following:
ifconfig ed0 alias 204.141.95.2 netmask 0xffffffff
Depending on the version of FreeBSD you're using, there is or is no
support for automating this using /etc/sysconfig. Newer versions
added the ability to do it there, for older versions, put it into
/etc/netstart, or /etc/rc.local manually.

Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
