Well, it looks like I'm going to have to contribute something to
FreeBSD and hunt it down myself. Another user emailed me saying
the same problem was happening to him since 2.1.0R. And I almost
stated I had the same problem with 2.1.5R but I double checked
just before posting and could not reproduce the problem. The
question is, "did I have the problem with 2.1.5R and now don't?"
Guess we'll know if I ever figure it out.

Surely this problem wouldn't be hardware related? Same time I put
2.2-current on it, it got a new motherboard. My 2.1.0R and 2.1.5R
systems are all on totally different hardware. 2.1.0R is 486DX33
ISA, 2.1.5R is NexGen PCI, and 2.2/3.0-current is [45]86/133 PCI.
