I finally found the problem, it was not a kernel bug, it was dhcp client.
In /sbin/dhclient-script, it tried to install a route from localhost to
the ether interface, which was bogus if the loop-back interface was not
configured. Under BSD4.4, there's no need to add such a route, it will be
automatically generated by the kernel. So the simplest solution to this
problem is to delete all `route add xxx 127.0.0.1' statements from the
script.

There is no need to fix kernel if the same result could be achieved by simple
rc.network file modification. Yes, solution proposed in conf/14913 is
not complete and only works in network_interfaces="auto" case, but the
modification to make it work in 100% cases is pretty trivial.

I was REALLY surprised that people are so ready to accept this as a
configuration bug. By all means, it is NOT, it is a kernel bug, and
has to be fixed inside the kernel. Users ought to be able to config
interfaces in whatever order they choose.

Well,

I REALLY should search mailing lists before sending useless messages...

There is PR conf/14913 which describes what is going wrong. Will somebody
commit the fix?

I am having similar problem after installing recent binary snapshot from
current.freebsd.org. I do not run amd, but every time when I am trying to ping
or telnet to my $HOSTNAME (not localhost!!), I am starting to get these
messages.
