Mmmm - everythings OK for me:
[51]cicely14# ifconfig lo0
lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 16384
        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000 
        inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 
        inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4 

The only tricky issue with diskless was to set root_rw_mount="YES"
for not ending in an md based /var.
