I've got two files, hostname.vlan2 and ifconfig.vlan2, both contain
basically the same information:

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
# cat /etc/hostname.vlan2
inet 10.117.254.2 255.255.255.248 NONE vlan 2 vlandev fxp0
# cat /etc/ifconfig.vlan2
inet 10.117.254.2 255.255.255.248 vlan 2 vlandev fxp0
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

When I boot, the netmask of vlan2 is /29, which is what I expect
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
vlan2: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1496
        lladdr 00:d0:b7:5a:d1:ec
        vlan: 2 parent interface: fxp0
        inet6 fe80::2d0:b7ff:fe5a:d1ec%vlan2 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x8
        inet 10.117.254.2 netmask 0xfffffff8 broadcast 10.117.254.7
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

but when I destroy vlan2 and recreate it
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
# ifconfig vlan2 destroy
# ifconfig vlan2 create
# ifconfig vlan2 `cat /etc/ifconfig.vlan2`
# cat /etc/ifconfig.vlan2
inet 10.117.254.2 255.255.255.248 vlan 2 vlandev fxp0
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

I get /8 netmask, which is not correct
It interprets the subnet mask as broadcast address. 
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
# ifconfig vlan2
vlan2: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1496
        lladdr 00:d0:b7:5a:d1:ec
        vlan: 2 parent interface: fxp0
        inet6 fe80::2d0:b7ff:fe5a:d1ec%vlan2 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x9
        inet 10.117.254.2 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 255.255.255.248
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

What syntax can I use to correct this? I am using a recent snapshot.

thank you very much!
