I believe this is actually required for rc scripts supplied by
ports. Scripts included in the base wont need it, since their default
settings are already present in /etc/defaults/rc.conf.

I just tried removing the default setting for '$bitlbee_enable' in the
rc script for irc/bitlbee, I did recently. It then results in the
following error when '$bitlbee_enable' is undefined:

# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/bitlbee rcvar
# bitlbee
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/bitlbee: WARNING: $bitlbee_enable is not set properly - see rc.conf(5).
bitlbee_enable=NO
