I'm fixing a few other problems due to the upgrade, but will follow up on 
libressl eventually. 

I'm a long time Linux user, but only have been using Freebsd for a little over 
a year, so I am cautious to do any rants. ;-)  (I have endured the wrath of 
Linux users mocking Yast, but I have yet to do an update of Freebsd without 
breaking something.)‎

Here is a similar thread to my issue:

Right now, I'm just issuing a warning until I rule out pilot error.
