Ok I rebooted and ran fsck. Fsck threw up a whole bunch of errors on the system disk, which it fixed.
And it all came good.
I think the problem stems from another problem I have where FreeBSD is only successfully booting every third or fourth boot. I was having to kill the power and reboot multiple times to get the system to come up - obviously that's thrown up some filesystem errors.
Thanks again y'all for the help.
