Apply a more consistent style to the echo statements in /etc/ scripts.
* Put quotes around each line
* Single quotes for lines with no variable interpolation
* Double quotes if there is
* Capitalize each word that begins a line
* Make echo -n 'Doing foo:' ... echo '.' more of a standard
Also:
* Use rm -f on /var/run/dev.db so if it's not there (devfs) it doesn't error
* Shorten the ldconfig messages so that the default fits on one line
* Test whether /var/msgs/bounds is a link before overwriting it
* Generally futz around with whitespace
convinced myself that it's better then what we have, but still
not perfect.
/etc/rc : Attempt to seed /dev/random with multiple backoffs.
/etc/rc.shutdown : Attempt to write the entropy_file.
In debugging the above changes, I've run into some
inconsistancies... rc.shutdown is run via 'init 6', but
does not appear to be run via '/sbin/reboot'. Thus, this
set of changes improves life depending on the mechanism
used to shut the system down.

which really wasn't such a hot idea in retrospect.
If the random device isn't available, it probably isn't wanted.
If it's wanted, it should be enabled in loader.conf.

Give them their own section, called "additional ABI support".

Don't rely on a shell script to do the neglibly less simple
job of loading a kernel module and running one command for
linux_enable.
These shell scripts are going away.
it lives in /usr/bin. Instead, locate files manually.
Note, only *files* under /var/spool/lock are now deleted rather
than everything that's not a directory. I think this is more
correct, but if anyone disagrees please feel free to change it.

time, and this is used to reseed the random number generator at
boot time.
NOTE - this has no hope of working if you halt(); you need to
execute rc.shutdown to get the entropy stash.
scripts may use to source safely overrides in ${rc_conf_files}
files.
This protects users who insist on the bad practice of copying
/etc/defaults/rc.conf to /etc/rc.conf from a recursive loop
that exhausts available file descriptors.
Several people have expressed interest in breaking this function
out into its own shell script. Anyone who wants to embark on
such an undertaking would do well to study the attributed PR.

The current offical Sendmail Inc. version uses /var/mail/ and when we upgrade
our repository to that version, we will get the change. It is best to make
the path change in 4.0-R (which may not have the latest Sendmail Inc. version,
than to change in mid-4.x stream when we may upgrade.

rundown script 'reboot' or 'single'. ISO support (which never
worked) has been removed from mount_nfs. mount_nfs and umount
now use mounttab, which allows umntall to work properly. The
rc scripts now call umntall as appropriate.

The motive behind this is to delay rc.{arch} as long as possible,
as it loads the screensaver, which kills the splash screen.
But at the same time, it can't be done after rc.devfs, as
that might depend on arch specific actions. rc.local and local.startup
also should come after these, and securelevel must be last of all.
this is no longer the right way to start Vinum unless you are doing some

[ "${foo}" ? "value" ]
where ? is a comparison operator
