>Description:
When starting Gnome with the installed /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xinitrc
for XFree86-3.3.6, but with 

panel &
gmc &
exec gnome-wm

as the last three lines instead of the twm nonsense.
Am using DHCP for NIC configuration.
Get plenty of these

Jan 12 18:04:14 adampc /kernel: arplookup 127.0.0.1 failed: could not allocate llinfo
Jan 12 18:04:14 adampc /kernel: arpresolve: can't allocate llinfo for 127.0.0.1rt

and performance is hurt. Takes a while to start anything.
>How-To-Repeat:
In /etc/rc.conf

ifconfig_xl0="DHCP"
network_interfaces="xl0 lo0"

Boot and do startx
>Fix:
In /etc/rc.conf

ifconfig_xl0="DHCP"
network_interfaces="lo0 xl0"
