Fix rc.subr dealing with some daemons

I'm looking to commit the patch I suggested back in 2007
in PR, if there no objections?
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=117027

In summary it adds and additional valid pattern, which
while could in a very rare case increase false positive
test, no more so than any of the patterns which IMO
is better than the current state which means these
daemons always fail.
