Recently someone more experienced than I stated that I should change the=20
construction of my startup scripts to use the following construction:

command_args=3D"${port_conf} ${port_flags}"

I dutifully changed several of my ports' startup scripts to use that=20
construction.  Now one of my scripts has been reported as failing.  The=20
problem is that it's trying to run $rc_flags twice.  I've been scratching=20
my head for two days now, running sh-x startup_script to try and figure=20
out what was wrong with my script.

Since I'm not that familiar with rc_subr, I ran some of my other ports=20
that used the same construction (but I've had reports of failures) through =

the same process, saved the results to text files and then carefully=20
examined them.

Imagine my surprise when I discovered that *all* of my startup scripts=20
were running double flags!

So, I looked at /etc/rc.subr, and lo and behold:
Line 670 of /etc/rc.subr has "$command $rc_flags $command_args"

So, the question is, is this an error in rc_subr?  Or was I misinformed=20
about the use of cammand_args?  If the former, do I submit a PR?  If the=20
latter, I have a lot of work to do.  {{{sigh}}}

I suspect it's the latter, which doesn't make me real happy, but I guess=20
I'll chalk it up to a learning experience.

If it isn't already obvious,
my opinions are my own and not
those of my employer.
