>Release:        FreeBSD 2.1-STABLE i386
>Environment:

	users with slocal (in MH package) and such in thier ~/.forward

>Description:
	
	Current /etc/rc script executes ldconfig after recovering vi
	editor files and invoking sendmail daemon. If users are using
	slocal or similar programs via ~/.forward file, mails would
	bounce and/or generates error mails until the ldconfig
	completes and slocal can propery find its dynamic link
	libraries.

>How-To-Repeat:

	Use slocal in ~/.forward file of, say, the user who gets mails
	to the root user. Terminate a vi session to leave a recovery
	file in /var/tmp/vi.recover/ . Reboot the system.  Many error
	mails should come saying slocal couldn't run propery.

>Fix:
	
	Move the ldconfig stuff before virecovery stuff in /etc/rc
	file.
