But now I recall someone else did!
The issue is fixed here: https://github.com/NetworkConfiguration/dhcpcd/commit/c1d1a885ae469dd98533b38da3c7753de1597d77

Basically on FreeBSD there is a rc.d script which sets the IsARouter flag after dhcpcd starts, hence the cold boot issue.
After some chit chat, we decided that the check isn't really needed and the issue is thus fixed.

Let me know if that fixed it for you or not!
Good luck.
