I think we should move toward making /usr/local/etc/rc.d work at much
like /etc as we can.  That includes sourcing .sh scripts.  During the
transition though, I don't think we can do that.  If we get all the
ports switched over, we might be able to turn that back on for 7.0, but
I can't see doing it in 6.x.
