I don't think /etc/ssh/sshd_config is the default not intended to be 
edited. I am on FreeBSD from 4.x times and it was always supposed to be 
modifed by users and was handled by mergemaster or etcupdate. If 
freebsd-update cannot deal with it then it is a bug in freebsd-update.
All in all pre-installed /etc/ssh/sshd_config has almost everything 
commented out because defaults are built in.

Kind regards
