Put LOADER_TFTP_SUPPORT= into your make.conf; saves you patching the
Makefiles over and over again.
/usr/share/examples/etc/make.conf and man 5 make.conf should talk
about this.

I think the nfs patch (if this addresses what looks like a hang) was
annoying but would eventually timeout. I have seen this occationally
but cannot remember how I fixed that or if it was fixed in later
FreeBSD versions.
