1) make sure you update /etc correctly (use mergemaster from the ports 
collection).

then,

2) make sure your /etc/defaults/rc.conf sources /etc/rc.conf (as distributed)
and (the important bit) make sure your /etc/rc.conf (or /etc/rc.conf.local)
doesn't then go and source either of these files again!  (This often happens if
e.g. /etc/defaults/rc.conf gets copied to /etc/rc.conf).  This will cause an
infinite recursion in the shell processing the rc scripts, which gives rise to
the out of file descriptors message.

Greg.
