Ok, I am going to solve my own problem just for search engine food.

Aside from adding the rc.conf variables there has to also be a /tmp folder
in the first place. I don't know why. I would figure that if needed that
that would be part of the boot scripts. But it isn't, so for us tmpmfs
newbies:

Create an empty /tmp folder

Add the following to rc.conf:
tmpmfs="YES"
tmpsize="50m"
tmpmfs_flags="-S -M -o noexec,nosuid"
clear_tmp_enable="YES"

reboot
