migrate guts of these /etc/foo.conf config files into /etc/default/foo.conf, and source the latter in the former. this makes it easier for a sysadmin to upgrade the default files without affecting local config, and retains the semantics that the /etc/foo.conf files are the actual files that are edited (as opposed to /etc/foo.local.conf or /etc/foo.conf.local or whatever, which isn't as intuitive).

# $NetBSD: rc.conf,v 1.94 2000/08/21 23:06:23 lukem Exp $
move start-time configuration from netstart, rc, rc.local into the new /etc/rc.conf. this also includes the following changes: netstart: ifaliases now includes a netmask, to ensure aliases work. rc/rc.local: make _everything_ based on configuration in rc.conf. also move things around such that DNS and YP are started early enough that other daemons needing their services also exist. move ldconfig from rc.local here, and also make it use /etc/ld.so.conf if it exists. run /etc/rc.lkm if it exists, a boot time.

Split rc.conf variables for starting programs into two: an on/off switch and a set of flags. Get rid of DEFAULT flags entirely. Print warnings if on/off switches are not set, or are set incorrectly. Add a shell function to simplify this on/off switch testing.

# Use program=YES to enable program, NO to disable it. program_flags are

If foo_flags is DEFAULT, run the program with a default set of flags. Most users will use this, and therefore will never have to worry about flags changing between releases. It's also a bit less error-prone.
