(cc'd to port maintainer)
This is getting odder. I have found bandwidthd just works out of the box 
  on FreeBSD 5.2.1 but on 4.8 4.9 and 4.10 I get a parse error.

I upgraded one of my machines to 4.10 and it made no differerence.

I've cut my config file down to

subnet 196.38.142.64 255.255.255.192
dev "em0"

and when I start it:

# ./bandwidthd
Monitoring subnet 196.38.142.64 with netmask 255.255.255.192
industrial# Opening em0
Opening em0
Opening em0
Opening em0
Syntax Error "parse error" on line 3
Syntax Error "parse error" on line 3
Syntax Error "parse error" on line 3
Syntax Error "parse error" on line 3

Did you do anything else to get bandwidthd to work?
