:: I just upgraded my system to 4.1.1-RELEASE and had a problem with lo0 too.
:: Try the following first and see if it fixes your problem:
:: 
::     ifconfig lo0 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0
:: 
:: If it does, make sure that you put it in your rc.conf as:
:: 
::     ifconfig_lo0="inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0"
:: 
:: After I rebuilt my rc.conf it seems I had left them out and it caused some
:: pretty drastic results. My ping times for localhost went up into the hundres
:: of miliseconds and named locally refused to respond as well as other
:: programs local to the machine went wacky.
