the command being executed. This is to allow rc.d scripts to do:
run_rc_command "${@}"
instead of:
run_rc_command "${1}"
and let the command handler (start, stop, etc.) receive the arguments after
the command name.
None of the default commands allow extra arguments, and they will error out
if any are given. This is mostly useful for script-specific commands that
are only supposed to be used through the command line and, therefore, need
to provide a friendly interface.
Proposed in tech-userlevel@. No major objections except for some minor
concerns regarding whether this should be allowed or not at all. Note that
I'm not touching any of the rc.d scripts in the base system, so this is
effectively a no-op from the user point of view.
