New Revision: 39326
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/doc/39326

Log:
  Point out that _enable is not optional, and therefore should use the :
  in parameter expansion.
  
  The future is now. :) All *.sh.in rc.d scripts have been copied to *.in,
  so no need to mention that it might happen someday.
