I think that's probably "less defined."

it's defined that way when booting to single-user mode from <not
running>, but i don't think i've ever seen a BSD system that unmounted
file systems when going from multi-user to single-user mode...

If you have any counterexamples, that's interesting.  if you have any
"BSD standard-ish" document that says something about it, i'd probably
drop dead of shock.  8-)
