There are already so many differences I don't think it matters. Also, there are
compatibility shims in rc.subr(8) that will recognize the old dhcp_* variables.
The change makes it easier to use rc.subr(8) glue in the script. However, as I
stated in my earlier reply I have no objections if you want to rename the
service.
