Apparently sending a NULL socket pointer to ifioctl hasn't worked since this commit in 2011:
https://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=218757

So I'm going to add this patch to the port unconditionally once it works.

Unfortunately, I can't compile the port with either my patch below or your original replacement version of isboot_ifup(). :( Did you make other changes? Here's the error I'm getting:

--- isboot.o ---

    error = socreate(AF_INET, &so, SOCK_DGRAM, 0, td->td_ucred, td);
