Sorry about that, I initially neglected to reply-all.
Initially there was also the following line:
Mar 28 21:13:03 nene bitlbee[2214]: The configuration directory
`/var/db/bitlbee/' does not exist. Configuration won't be saved.
However I created this directory and chowned it to bitlbee. The -n
argument does cause bitlbee to start properly. Is there any way I can
get the daemon to work? I added the argument to the following line in
/etc/init.d/bitlbee under d_start():
--exec $DAEMON -- -p $BITLBEE_PORT -P $PIDFILE
$BITLBEE_OPTS
But it does not daemonize properly.
I apologize if this is perfectly obvious, as I'm not exactly a guru.
The severity can probably be safely lowered though, as bitlbee does
appear to work on kBSD.
Thanks,
Eric

That one isn't really a big deal, it's just the IPC socket (which isn't
really used yet).
This is the only thing it logs? What if you start it with -n?
