At our current system (4.0-20000502-STABLE), dmesg buffer is not cleared
during system boot and contains previous data. This looks as following:
=== cut part of /var/run/dmesg ===
dc0: TX underrun -- increasing TX threshold
dc0: TX underrun -- increasing TX threshold

=== end cut ===
Is it bug or feature?
I strongly want it to be feature because this buffer may contain panic report
and previous important messages in panic case.
