implicitly using $name if $rcvar isn't set), and always perform this check,
even when using start_cmd (et al).
this check is performed before the pidcmd
is run, speeding up scripts that weren't going to be run anyway.
this should speed up booting slow systems.
- take advantage of the above and remove
start_precmd="checkyesno foo"
in scripts that use start_cmd.
- explicitly set rcvar=foo in the rc.d/foo scripts which have an equivalent
rc.conf entry
- fix `rcvar' and `restart' when $rcvar isn't set.
these above changes fix PR [bin/11027].
- when doing `force*', ignore the return value of *_precmd.
this fixes PR [bin/10781].
- rename what sysdb provides from `databases' to `sysdb', to reflect
the name of the script.
- improve the comments in rc.subr
set in src/etc after a "make release" in both "src" and "xsrc", to create a
ISO-image of the release in $RELEASEDIR/installation/cdrom.
Hook for architecture dependent pre/post-processing in etc/etc.*/Makefile.inc
are available as 'iso-image_md_post' and 'iso-image_md_pre', see
etc/etc.i386/Makefile.inc as an example. Might be useful for setting up
bootable CDs on alpha, sparc, ...

the latter depends upon aftermountlkm (but is required by DAEMON), so that
lkms may be loaded before the securelevel is raised.

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).
allow changing the user credentials to ${name}_user, ${name}_group,
and ${name}_groups as part of this. if ${name}_chroot is used, the following
variables won't work: ${name}_chdir and ${name}_nice.
