FreeBSD appears to have released a patch to fix this bug:
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=74179

A similar report appears in:
http://diswww.mit.edu/snafu.fooworld.org/sfs/2020
and
http://news.gw.com/freebsd.ports/80109

Otherwise lines 640-701 probably apply:
http://pdos.lcs.mit.edu/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/sfs1/acinclude.m4?annotate=1.130;cvsroot=sfs

Let us know if the patch from FreeBSD does the right thing.  Thanks!
