Couldn't the files in /usr/local/etc/rc.d use /etc/rc.conf
for configuration? Ie. for the openldap21 port the rc file
could check for slapd_enable and slapd_flags in /etc/rc.conf.

This would make it easier to have port installations
in distributed filesystems like AFS. Maybe you have
many computers with the same port installation but
you only want one to start slapd. It would also
make system configuration more coherent.

I'm thinking something like, but maybe less complex than,
/etc/rc.d in CURRENT. What do you think?
