FILESYSTEMS (the default early_late_divider):
1. Move sysctl to run first
2. Move as many BEFOREs to REQUIREs as possible.
3. Minor effect, move hostid_save from right before mdconfig to right
after.
A lot of the early scripts make use of sysctl one way or another so
running this first makes a lot of sense given that system-critical
values are often placed in sysctl.conf.
My original purpose for working on this was that while doing some
debugging on other stuff I noticed that the order of execution was
different in the first pass through the early scripts and the second.
In practice that doesn't matter because the scripts are not executed the
second time. However this _can_ result in problems if the difference in
the rcorder moves a script from the late section to the early section in
the second pass (which would mean the script would not get executed).
So, I wanted to make the order of execution of the scripts in the early
section more deterministic.
In the course of debugging the ordering problems I noticed that moving
the BEFOREs to REQUIREs prevented the changes in order from the first
pass to the second pass without having to make any substantial changes.
(Of course it's no secret that I think BEFORE should be avoided as much
as possible, but this is a good example of why.)

employ a more generic solution, and use it in the individual rc.d scripts
that also have an $rc_quiet test:
1. Add check_startmsgs() to rc.subr.
2. In the rc.d scripts that use rc_quiet (and rc.subr) substitute
variations of [ -z "$rc_quiet" ] with check_startmsgs
3. In savecore add a trailing '.' to the end of the message to make it
more consistent with other scripts.
4. In newsyslog remove a : before the terminal '.' since we do not expect
there to be anything printed out in between to make it more consistent.
5. In the following scripts change "quotes" to 'quotes' where no variables
exist in the message: savecore pf newsyslog
6. In the following scripts substitute if/then/fi for the simpler (and
more consistent) check_startmsgs &&: faith stf
7. In the following scripts separate the "Starting foo:" from the terminal
'.' to make them more consistent: moused hostname pf
8. In nfsclient move the message to its own line to avoid a style bug
9. In pf rc_quiet does not apply to the _stop method, so remove the
test there.
10. In motd add 'quotes' around the terminal '.' for consistency
because another command (echo) is executed between the mount command
and the check.

scripts in rc.d to stop rc(8) from booting into multi-user mode when
a critical or severe error condition is encountered.
o Modify scripts in etc/rc.d that already implemented this functionality
independently.
o Document it.
[1] - This subroutine was implemented in FreeBSD in rc.d/fsck. I moved it
to rc.subr(8). Our version differs slightly in that it takes an
optional argument to stop the boot even if "autoboot" is not set.

not be mounted unless the -l flag was specified.
Add an rc script, mountlate, which basically runs 'mount -a -l'. It runs
after DAEMON but before LOGIN.
This is useful for things like loopback mounts, because mountcritremote
runs before mountd / nfsd (since /usr might be a remote file system), so
an attempt to mount a loopback network file system in mountcritremote will
fail.
Also add a progress message to mountcritlocal, for the sake of symmetry
with similar messages in mountcritremote and mountlate.

Because there is no "correct" way of doing ATA raid (ie, geom vs.
atacontrol vs. vinum) that is bikeshed proof, this rcng script stays within
the bounds of atacontrol and assumes that other RAID solutions for GEOM or
vinum will end up in a different rcNG script.
