it has todo with the order if rc files:

CURRENT:

# rcorder /etc/rc.d/* /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* | cat -n | egrep 'syslogd|tmp'
    61  /etc/rc.d/syslogd
    76  /etc/rc.d/tmp
    77  /etc/rc.d/cleartmp

7.0-REL:

# rcorder /etc/rc.d/* /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* | cat -n | egrep 'syslogd|tmp'
    56  /etc/rc.d/tmp
    57  /etc/rc.d/cleartmp
    64  /etc/rc.d/syslogd

I will insert 'REQUIRE: tmp' in /etc/rc.d/syslogd
