Actually, dhcpd cares about interfaces, too.. as does natd, if you're
running that. See dhcpd_interface in /usr/local/etc/rc.isc-dhcpd.conf,
and the "interface" parameter for natd, which could be in /etc/rc.conf
as natd_interface, or passed manually in /etc/rc.conf natd_flags, or
perhaps buried in a configuration file specified with the -f parameter
to natd.
Also, you might want to try this as root:
grep -IR if0 /etc /usr/local/etc
Where if0 is the name of your current interface. For most systems, that
should catch just about everything.. but it'd be better to maintain a
list of places where you've had to enter your interface.
