Nope. These are the only values set in that file; everything else is 
comment:
rc_interactive="YES"
rc_shell=/sbin/sulogin
rc_hotplug="!*"
rc_logger="YES"
rc_start_wait=100
unicode="YES"
rc_tty_number=12

I don't think I've ever challenged any update in /etc/init.d/. As I 
haven't changed anything in that directory I've no reason not to accept 
any new version.

Hmm. I'm wondering about that rc_hotplug line. I'll try removing it. I 
put it there because I'm a control freak when it comes to computers, and 
I prefer an orderly startup sequence that I can follow.
