Sigh... It seems those files were needed after all, as they must refer to the current system; chalk it up to my lack of understanding of how "portsnap" works. I got them back (plus more besides) from a backup on my MacBook. What freaked me out was actually looking at the list of files being backed up, and thought the worst.
And the sooner I upgrade to FreeBSD-10 the better, I think.
