Assuming you have accounting enabled in /etc/rc.conf, that's to be expected. Accounting is enabled on boot, disabled on shutdown, and cycled twice during /var/account/acct rotation at 3am.

Apparently my digging in the source precluded me from looking in the normal places one would look to find these things out. ;) Appreciate the nudge.
