rcNG was the word for "using rc.subr". From the beginning these
rc.subr-powered scripts have been using the rcorder preamble and have
always been rc.d script actually. Since we're talking about the same thing,
I'm not sure words are really important.

Using the .sh extension prevents from conflicts in ${WRKDIR} and you know
what kind of file it is in ${FILESDIR}. Anyway, what is the difference
between adding .sh suffix in some cases and removing it in some cases ?
