For me, on bare metal (non-vm) amd64 with root-on-ZFS,

  Fails to boot to multiuser at git: 8db1669959ce
  Boot fine at git: 0b79a76f8487

Boot to singleuser is fine even with failed revision.

Failure mode:
 Hard hangup or spinning and non-operable. Hard power-off needed.
 Seems to happen after starting rc.conf processing and before setting
 hostid.
