UPDATE: this patch is applied to Freebsd repository on 10 May 2013
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base?view=revision&revision=250430
In my previous post, I was talking about the "dmesg -c" equivalent in FreeBSD. Simply it was a sysctl command. So, I decided to simply change FreeBSD dmesg command and make it act like in as Linux. All you have to do is download my patch and apply it as shown below.I was tested the patch on FreeBSD 9 btw.
