When you upgrade your source, note changes in /usr/src/etc ...
In rc.network, you'll find:
if [ -n "${ifconfig_args}" ] ; then
# See if we are using DHCP
if [ X"${ifconfig_args}" = X"DHCP" ]; then
${dhcp_program} ${dhcp_flags} ${ifn}
else
ifconfig ${ifn} ${ifconfig_args}
fi
in the network configuration section.
Try configuring an interface with "DHCP" in your rc.conf.
