There was a big commit to FreeBSD-current to do interface renaming to bring it in line with other *BSD. Below is the commit message. Is this change of interest for DFBSD? If so, I could start work on it.

  This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
  device creation and configuration symantics.
