Nope. All the /etc/rc.d/ files are scanned by `rcorder'. `rcorder' then
creates a dependacy graph from information in each /etc/rc.d/ file. A
walk of the graph is done to output the list of scripts in the order they
should run in.
To quote what you once wrote about `pib', the NetBSD implimentation is
"slicker than two eels screwing in a bucket of snot!" :-)
