As an alternative to sendmail_enable=NONE, solve the boot time problem
for non-sendmail users completely by moving all of the sendmail startup
code from /etc/rc to /etc/rc.sendmail. The source for that script will
be kept in src/etc/sendmail/rc.sendmail so make.conf's NO_SENDMAIL will
prevent it from being installed. A new rc.conf variable,
mta_start_script specifies the script to run to start the user's
preferred MTA. For backward compatibility, it will default to
/etc/rc.sendmail. The specified script is called out of /etc/rc after
checking to make sure it exists. A new rc.sendmail.8 man page has also
been added which now houses the sendmail_* variable descriptions
formerly in rc.conf.5.

Instead, store the default list in /etc/rc itself and allow the operator

Bring in required TLI library routines to support this.
Since we don't support TLI we've essentially copied what NetBSD
has done, adding a thin layer to emulate direct the TLI calls
into BSD socket calls.
This is mostly from Sun's tirpc release that was made in 1994,
however some fixes were backported from the 1999 release (supposedly
only made available after this porting effort was underway).
The submitter has agreed to continue on and bring us up to the
1999 release.
Several key features are introduced with this update:
Client calls are thread safe. (1999 code has server side thread
safe)
Updated, a more modern interface.
Many userland updates were done to bring the code up to par with
the recent RPC API.
There is an update to the pthreads library, a function
pthread_main_np() was added to emulate a function of Sun's threads
library.
While we're at it, bring in NetBSD's lockd, it's been far too
long of a wait.
New rpcbind(8) replaces portmap(8) (supporting communication over
an authenticated Unix-domain socket, and by default only allowing
set and unset requests over that channel). It's much more secure
than the old portmapper.
Umount(8), mountd(8), mount_nfs(8), nfsd(8) have also been upgraded
to support TI-RPC and to support IPV6.
Umount(8) is also fixed to unmount pathnames longer than 80 chars,
which are currently truncated by the Kernel statfs structure.
