I do not know how much the two messages matter --for me or to anyone else. They might not be interesting other than my being educated a bit.

As for what all is non-default for my configuration files (not much)...

My use of networking is minimal and the configuration changes for that are limited to rc.conf:

Historically I've used 10.1-STABLE that way and still do. Recently I've been experimenting with 11.0-CURRENT based on the same sort of /etc/rc.conf file.

I'm not getting the notices for 10.1-STABLE and have not been.

I am getting the notices for 11.0-CURRENT now but I did not notice such with the few earlier-vintage builds that I've done. It is possible that I just did not notice: I do not have much 11.0-CURRENT history. If so, then my notes are more of a 10.1-STABLE vs. 11.0-CURRENT difference notice.

I also fiddle with /boot/loader.conf, /etc/fstab, /etc/make.conf, and /etc/src.conf primarily. /etc/sysctl.conf for dump issues. /usr/local/etc/sudoers .

The rest of the configuration files are at the default/installation status.

The PowerMac that I plug the SSD into at the time determines which of bge0 vs. gem0 actually exists.
