i think thats out of the handbook if i recall.  here is the reference:
 
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html
 
under section 21.4.5
 
no issues so far. its just another way to get into single user mode after a reboot.
 
i do the kernel stuff in multiuser mode, all the other compiling in multiuser mode, and then drop to single user mode to installworld.
