You maybe also have something defined in your /boot/loader.conf that
causes a tunable to be set?

It looks like there's just an ordering bug in kern_sysctl.c, where we
call sysctl_register_all() with SI_SUB_KMEM, SI_ORDER_FIRST but we do
MALLOC_DEFINE() with SI_SUB_KMEM, SI_ORDER_THIRD.  If
sysctl_register_all() is going to malloc(), it needs to run after
malloc_init(), and it looks like populating a string tunable causes it
to malloc().
