defaultrouter/static routes not picked up from /etc/rc.conf

I installed from the 5.2-beta iso two days ago, cvsup'd from current and
rebuilt everything.  On boot up it configures the interfaces fine except for
the default route and static routes, it say's that defaultrouter and
static_routes is not set.  I set the defaultrouter and static routes in
/etc/defaults/rc.conf and it picks it up there just fine.  Any ideas why
this happens?

Here is my /etc/rc.conf

defaultrouter ="63.236.114.1"
hostname="ic3.paymentonline.com"
ifconfig_bge0="inet 63.236.114.7 netmask 255.255.255.0"
ifconfig_bge1="inet 10.100.2.6 netmask 255.255.255.0"

static_routes = "00"
route_00 = "10.100.0.0/16 10.100.2.1"
