--- Comment #4 from Jilles Tjoelker <[email protected]> ---
As /etc/host.conf has no longer been used since FreeBSD 5.0, perhaps the time
has come to remove /etc/rc.d/nsswitch. A /etc/host.conf file is only needed to
run binaries from FreeBSD 4.x or older with a non-default name resolution order
(the hard-coded default was generally DNS, then /etc/hosts).

There is no point in changing the pathname since the old binaries refer to
/etc/host.conf. A host.conf in a different location would be useless.

In any case, the error is written but ignored. The system boots regardless of
it.
