Funny you got no reply.
This is not necessary. If you copy said file to /boot/device.hints, it
will be read automatically as a loader .conf file and set environment
variables that will be read automatically by the kernel.
If you wish to use alternate configurations without tweaking
device.hints, you can do
loader_conf_files="xyzzy"
And xyzzy will be read. Since device.hints is read right after
/boot/defaults/loader.conf, anything later will override it's values.
