Every time I see that it's because of missing '#' at the beginning of
the line in a shell script (to mark the line as a comment).

I'd look at starting scripts first. Something like:

	# ls /etc/rc.d/* | xargs grep "This"
	# ls /usr/local/etc/rc.d/* | xargs grep "This"

and see if there's a line starting with 'This' without a '#' at the
beginning somewhere.
