--- Comment #3 from milios at ccsys.com ---
this breaks things. as of the above commit, dhcpcd, if simply installed and
left unconfigured (read: not even enabled in rc.conf[.et al]) it will
nonetheless start at boot time, call out to DHCP servers on every hot network
port and possibly fall back to choosing an ip in the link local subnet, either
way, wiping out any static network configurations on those ports.

to fix, you need to add the following two lines into the rc.d/dhcpcd script [at
the appropriate places]

rcvar=dhcpcd_enable
: ${dhcpcd_enable="NO"}
