You could take things in own hand by configuring the devices with /etc/start_if.<interface> files.
You can use the normal ifconfig commands in this kind of file(s) just like you would do from the command line.
Several years ago on bsdforums.org I recommended usage of this file. Somebodies interface was DOWN at FreeBSD startup and as a result DHCP never worked. Just creating a /etc/start_if.xx0 with "ifconfig xx0 up" solved the problem.
