Yep, that's how it was for me. > Does this mean an upgrade via freebsd-update to 11.x would remove all the > lz* and xz* hard-links from my system? Not that I would notice, just > curious. I've never used FreeBSD update, but I just checked its filelist via an IDS check, and that does appear to have the xz.../lz... files linked to bsdgrep. I also just checked the FreeBSD ISO's for i386 and amd64, both dvd, and bootonly, and none of them have the xz.../lz... files. Unless I'm reading the results from freebsd-update incorrectly, it appears you will have these linked files if you follow that upgrade route, this disparity adding to my earlier suspicions that this change was in error.
