At BSDcon Luke M showed me what the NetBSD 1.5 rc files look like.
They've moved them all to /etc/rc.d/ and made them very granular (as
SVR4, but w/o leading numbers in the filenames).  The NetBSD
implementation also solved all the issues people have brought up in the
past -- dependacies, etc...

We should just move to using their rc code.
