Yes, for production, that would be the case.  The scripts I have
submitted are, admittedly, at the "proof of concept" stage.  Ad the
scripts don't know where they might be running from at this point,
they look for their subroutines in the directory the script was
executed from.

If they were to be included in the port, yes, they would be patched to
look for their subroutines in $PREFIX/etc, as you suggest.

You mean it's not there already?  Honestly, I haven't looked.  I just
kind of assumed it would be there.  Then again, I haven't used
/etc/rc.conf.d, either.  I coded it into the script in an effort to be
functionally complete; in line with how everything else works.

Thank you for your input.  Sorry that I've been so slow to reply.
