For me, Manfred's workaround actually helped.

VirtualBox VM [head, r273922, amd64] on stable/10 host [r273847,
amd64].

In my case, /var is NOT a mount point (root only partition, mounted
rw), but empty mfsvar is forcibly used without Manfred's workaround in
multi user mode.

In single user mode, actual /var (in root partition) appears as before.
So there can be some mis-ordering within rc scripts.
(Remounting of / is delayed? Check for /var too early?)

For me, it takes nearly 2 minutes each boot after r273872.
No specific rc.conf setting for it.
