JFYI, I have drafted a errata patch for RELENG_6 which documents the problem and a potential workaround for it and it is now under review and we can get it on the website soon. An errata candidate is currently under test and further refinement. After we are sure that the problem were properly fixed, the release engineering team is likely to publish an errata (would eventually done against RELENG_6_1 so users using the errata branch would get it through CVSup or freebsd-update) for this.
