Doug Barton e8ea7f0260 1. Attempt to take one bullet out of the foot-shooting gun by silently
ignoring errors when sourcing rc.conf* files. The most common error
occurs when users put a command of some sort into those files.
(ifconfig is a popular choice)

2. Make the file rotation logic simpler by starting one down from
the "top" of the list, rather than at the top.

3. Try to make file rotation more secure by calling unlink(1) on all
new file names before rotating an old file to the new name, rather than
merely calling 'rm -f' on any files that exceed the number of files
to save.
