 It was; however it turns out that the system was still running the 
 9.2-RELEASE kernel because the upgrade had remained incomplete due
 to lack of space in the root partition.
 
 "freebsd-update rollback" followed by reboot restored an intact 
 9.2-RELEASE system with networking.
 
 After resizing the the root partition another upgrade went smoothly
 and 10.0-RELEASE is now running fine with networking and all.
 
 Case closed, no problem exists with ifconfig, sorry for the false alarm.
