But it could be argued that they are only good for reference of
what NetBSD would do for the matching service.  They are not
necessarily what would be right for FreeBSD.  And in the future,
when we want a reference for what NetBSD does for some service, we
can always just look at whatever they're using at *that* time.

Disclaimer: I have no particular preference on this, I'm just
saying that a reasonable argument could be made....
