With ZFS in the mix, /usr/src is present but empty (the file system is 
not mounted).

If single user mode is recommended, then why is this not in the FreeBSD 
Handbook?

etcupdate -p

I get:

In the past I simply ran etcupdate after make installworld.

If etcupdate -p fails before make installworld, then should the 
subsequent etcupdate be with or without option -B ?
