I grabbed one of gjb's livecd releases and when I was going through
trying to set things up, I noticed that .profile wasn't installed to
my home directory like I expect if I would have run pw useradd -m.

bsdinstall (and the password utility it uses) needs to follow an
equivalent process because otherwise it's silly that one has to manually
setup files in user's home directories when installing from the livecd.

How-To-Repeat: - Install from a FreeBSD 9.0+ LiveCD.
- Create a user foo.
- Note that ~foo/ doesn't contain .profile and other files from /usr/share/skel.

bsdinstall just invokes a shell with adduser(8) in a chroot and doesn't do 
any account management itself, so the bug must be in adduser
