Is command always set?  I'm pretty sure it isn't so this may not be entierly
safe.  If it's not set, should we try to guess prefix from $0?

The other issue I see is that instead of:

	if [ -f ${etcdir}/rc.conf.d/"$_command" ]; then
		debug "Sourcing ${etcdir}/rc.conf.d/${_command}"
		. ${etcdir}/rc.conf.d/"$_command"
	fi

I think we should do:

	if [ -f /etc/rc.conf.d/"$_command" ]; then
		debug "Sourcing /etc/rc.conf.d/${_command}"
		. /etc/rc.conf.d/"$_command"
	fi
	if [ "${etcdir}" != "/etc" -a -f ${etcdir}/rc.conf.d/"$_command" ]; then
		debug "Sourcing ${etcdir}/rc.conf.d/${_command}"
		. ${etcdir}/rc.conf.d/"$_command"
	fi

That preserves the old behavior while adding support for
${prefix}/etc/rc.conf.d.
