I consult with, and provide service to, quite a few sysadmins at small companies. Most of them won't bother to fix a FreeBSD system that's gone awry like that; they'll just reinstall. They do not have the time to investigate the subtleties of what went wrong.
Then they're not sysadmins. Their box maintainers. If you really want to do a good job of consulting, you should recommend, when they format the box, that they install an OS they know something about. Trying to "sysadmin" OSes you are ignorant of is simply asking for trouble.
