/etc/freebsd-update.conf:
---
# If the user has modified file ownership, permissions, or flags, should
# FreeBSD Update retain this modified metadata when installing a new version
# of that file?
# KeepModifiedMetadata yes
---

(in the 'defaults' section, so commented out means this _is_ the normal state)

Somewhat misdescribed, since "user has modified" doesn't actually mean anything
particular about _how_ they differ from the current presumed state, just _that_
it differs.  In this case, because previous versions made them that way.
