Please be ware of the following:
# rc.conf snippet
static_routes="goodyear \
firestone \
bridgestone"
route_goodyear="... "
route_firestone="... "
route_bridgestone="... "
bridge_foo="... "
bridge_bar="... "
Now `list_prefix bridge` will also list bridgestone because multi-line
variables will not be properly detected by list_prefix.
