I am sorry for the delay. Your patch is reasonable to me. This
problem was there for a while, so it should be fixed asap.
I noticed there was something wrong about ${name}_program but it
seems I mistakenly changed it (sorry...). Then I received a report
"it does not work" so I just reverted it.
IMO defining $command in rc.d scripts is not a good practice.
"Always use ${name}_program and let load_rc_config() set the
$command" would be consistent and useful to avoid this sort of
problems.
