I agree, it shouldn't.  What should really happen is that mail.rc
should propagate to /usr/share/misc along with mail's other files
and we should adjust _PATH_MASTER_RC to point to /usr/share/misc/mail.rc
instead of /etc/mail.rc.

However, since this would constitute an interface change and leave
anyone's customized /etc/mail.rc file high-and-dry (unless you changed
the algorithm to search along a path, with /etc first), I think that
I'll wait for feedback on this one before doing anything.

Comments?
