suggested patch for rc.d script

When restarting postgresql server via rc scripts, the server's process inhe=
rits
the fib of the caller, ignoring any settings in /etc/rc.conf. During
maintenance, this can cause headaches when simply restarting the database
brings it up with the incorrect routing table.

This is likely due to the rc script's use of 'su -l ${postgresql_user} -c "=
exec
${command} ..." in the script.

A simple fix is to insert "setfib ${postgresql_fib}" in the exec statment ;
when no fib is configured, this will default to 0 in any case without any
error. This is provided by the patch below.

Caveat: this would break port installations on any OS prior to a base where
/usr/sbin/setfib is not in use (but this was tested and found present on am=
d64
versions as early as 7.2 =E2=80=93 may still want to modify to account for =
early OS
edge cases rather than calling setfib always implicitly)
