You have to create a new kernel with streams NIT support:
(fragment taken from GENERIC kernel template)

************ cut here ***********
# The following are for streams NIT support.  NIT is used by
# etherfind, traffic, rarpd, and ndbootd.  As a rule of thumb,
# NIT is almost always needed on a server and almost never
# needed on a diskless client.
#
pseudo-device   snit            # streams NIT
pseudo-device   pf              # packet filter
pseudo-device   nbuf            # NIT buffering module
pseudo-device   clone
