Automated submission of kernel panic reports: sysutils/panicmail

[Carlos Jacobo Puga Medina]

At last, I realized how to solved this inconvenient. Digging a bit I found
what I needed. All is summarized in the pr124747 which describes perfectly
this problem and attached a patch to fix it.

I add the modified patch according to current rc.d scripts included.

I tested it and now it works like a charm.
