This issue is repeatable. Although I haven't had time to trace it further,
I have worked out that if I configure my dhcp interface with an alias eg
ifconfig_em0_alias0 a default route is not added; after commenting that
line in /etc/rc.conf the route is ok again on reboot. I've tried
alternating between commented/uncommented with consistent success/fail
results so I guess this needs looking at.
