Yes the files are exactly the same:

ago@freebee$ ident /etc/rc
/etc/rc:
     $FreeBSD: src/etc/rc,v 1.212.2.7 2000/08/18 09:22:02 sheldonh Exp $

ago@freebee$ ident /usr/src/etc/rc
/usr/src/etc/rc:
     $FreeBSD: src/etc/rc,v 1.212.2.7 2000/08/18 09:22:02 sheldonh Exp $

ago@freebee$ diff /etc/rc /usr/src/etc/rc
ago@freebee$ 


Some weird (well why not..) theory of me about the 
error message:

[snip from /var/qmail/rc ] 
exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH" \
qmail-start ./Maildir/ multilog t /var/log/qmail qmail &
[snip]                         ^^^
                       Could this be the t in "unknown option t"?
This would make things even stranger, but remember my /etc/mail/mailer.conf
points at the qmail stuff. Just a shot in the dark...
