Reading RELENG_6 kernel tunables?

/usr/src/sys/conf/NOTES says:
# 2. In /boot/loader.conf, set the tunables kern.maxswzone,
# kern.maxbcache, kern.maxtsiz, kern.dfldsiz, kern.maxdsiz,
# kern.dflssiz, kern.maxssiz and kern.sgrowsiz.
Is loader.conf in some sort of different world than sysctl(8)? Shouldn't
I be able to at least view the current settings using sysctl? I
understand these are things which may have to be set in stone before the
kernel starts running proper. Just want to see the current value.
# sysctl kern.maxssiz
sysctl: unknown oid 'kern.maxssiz'
Show how can a view the current setting and confirm my messing with
loader.conf took hold?
