and takes over mountcritlocal's role as the early / late divider. This
makes it far easier to add rc scripts which need to run early, such as a
startup script for zfs, which is right around the corner.
This change should be a no-op; I have verified that the only change in
rcorder's output is the insertion of FILESYSTEMS immediately after
mountcritlocal.

...because as yar@ points out: "[...] you were relying on evil
side-effects of the variable being named *_program. hose side-effect
have been eliminated since rc.subr rev. 1.42. [...] The point is that
the default "status" method is for rc.d scripts that handle startup and
shutdown of conventional daemons, and not for custom tasks like the pf
case."
The change is still valid in RELENG_6 (and still doesn't have to be
backed out) as long as rc.subr:r1.42 is not MFC'ed to RELENG_6, too.
the /etc/rc.d/pf script as it is implicitly added by /etc/rc.subr's
run_rc_command() because of the existing $pf_program.

Start before routing for better system protection.
(pf used to start late during system boot, after
many a network daemon have started already, which
sucked from security POV.)
Remark: For maximum security, pf should start before
netif, but it would create a dependency loop because
pfsync has to start after netif, yet before pf.
