Without further investigation - shouldn't that be

	smartd_enable="YES"

conforming to the syntax of other service start commands?
At least that might be the reason why smartd doesn't
automatically start. Sadly I can't find a reference to
how to edit rc.conf in "man smartd"; at least the manual
explains the options well... ;-)
