This was a kernel bug indeed. The following commit fixes it; no patches to the
qmail port are needed.

Heya, stop rig
This is a FreeBSD kernel bug. There's no excuse for the kernel to write
past ifc_len. If the kernel is fixed, the code will dynamically find the
correct buffer length, as it does on other systems.

Hi,
I am the maintainer of the qmail FreeBSD port.
I received the following patch request.
I was wondering, the code seems okay to me.
However, depending on the local implementation of ioctl his
allegations pose a window of opportunity.
Suggestions? Mr. Bern
