A grep I crafted to pick up on some common bugs happened upon a copy of the FreeBSD CVS tree that I happened to have handy and found the bugs below where the 2nd & 3rd arguments to memset calls have been swapped.
I'm unfamiliar with how patch submission works in FreeBSD, but hopefully someone can eyeball this for correctness and get it committed, or forward it on to the right people.
