I can try to reproduce this if you'd like, on a VMware session.
One case where the default route could be (I haven't checked) removed:
some NIC drivers in the past, when changing the "primary IP" (first IP
shown in ifconfig for an interface), would actually bring down the
entire interface (e.g. ifconfig XXX down) then back up again a second or
two later. dmesg on your machine would be able to confirm whether or
not this is happening.
Thanks Jeremy, no such down up here is show so I believe this is not
the case, here anyway. The interface in question was em0 details:-
em0: <Intel(R) PRO/1000 Network Connection Version - 6.7.3> port 0xd400-0xd43f mem 0xfea60000-0xfea7ffff,0xfea40000-0xfea5ffff irq
23 at device 8.0 on pci1
em0: Ethernet address: 00:30:48:71:b6:b7
em0: [FILTER]
FreeBSD test 7.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 7.0-RELEASE #0: Sun Feb 24 19:59:52 UTC 2008

Would be most interested in the results of you vm test if you would
be so kind.
