Hi,

Earlier today I upgraded my desktop (Base system and ports) from an 
October 19th version of CURRENT to:
FreeBSD bling.properkernel.com 7.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT #0: Mon Dec 26 10:54:45 EST 2005     root at bling.properkernel.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/BLING  i386

During startup, I am now seeing the following message:
/etc/rc: WARNING: $compat5x_enable is not set properly - see rc.conf(5).

I believe this message is saying that the compat5x-i386 package now 
requires a value to be set in the compat5x_enable variable.

I attached a patch that fixes the lack of a default value for this 
variable in /usr/local/etc/rc.d/compat5x.sh (It can be found online as 
well at http://bling.properkernel.com/freebsd/compat5x.rc.d.patch )

Could this be reviewed and committed?

Thanks,
Andy
