systems are fully "ready to go".
'FILESYSTEMS' states: "This is a dummy dependency, for services which
require file systems to be mounted before starting." However, we have
'var' which is was run after 'FILESYSTEMS' and can mount /var if it
already isn't mounted. Furthermore, several scripts cannot use /var
until 'cleanvar' has done its thing. Thus "FILESYSTEMS" hasn't really
meant all critical file systems are fully usable.
assignments to the literal values it would have returned.
The concept of set_rcvar() was nice in theory, but the forks
it creates are a drag on the startup process, which is especially
noticeable on slower systems, such as embedded ones.
During the discussion on freebsd-rc@ a preference was expressed for
using ${name}_enable instead of the literal values. However the
code portability concept doesn't really apply since there are so
many other places where the literal name has to be searched for
and replaced. Also, using the literal value is also a tiny bit
faster than dereferencing the variables, and every little bit helps.

both are necessary when the time difference is large.

to allow them to do a "clean" shutdown.
I purposely avoided making changes to network-related stuff since the
system shutting down is pretty conclusive, and there may be complicated
dependencies on the network that I would rather not try to unravel.
I also skipped kerberos-related stuff for the reasons above, and
because I have no way to test it.

on devfs is useful so that a hardware time device can start with its
necessary device nodes already in place. While this ordering happens
as a side effect currently in HEAD, and the PRs were generally fixed
via upgrades, etc; it's better to make it explicit.
While I'm here, ntpd should REQUIRE ntpdate, rather than ntpdate
using BEFORE: ntpd.
calls to ntpd -g. ntpd is noticably slower than ntpdate, but is also more
accurate. This removes the nasty hackery in rc.d/ntpdate that would parse
out ntp servers from /etc/ntp.conf (ntpd knows how to read its own config
file). By default, ntpd *will* sync with its listed time servers. To
turn this off so that ntpd does not sync, ntpd_sync_on_start="NO" can be
added to /etc/rc.conf. If ntpd is not enabled (the default), then time is
not synced on startup. ntpdate's use has been depreciated by the ntpd
authors for quite some time so this change shouldn't be unexpected.

The NetBSD ident string will be left intact, both for history and
also incase we wish to pull in future versions.

* Space -> tabs conversion.
* Removed blanks before semicolon in "if ... ; then".
* Proper indentation of misindented lines.
* Put a full stop after some comments.
* Removed whitespace at end of line.

xntpd_* -> ntpd_*
portmap_* -> rpcbind_*
Also change single_mountd_enable -> mountd_enable
Changing the mountd flags brings us closer to NetBSD.
All of the old variable names are shimmed so you can continue to use the
old variable name.
Finally make /etc/rc.d/mountd no longer dependent on nfs as there are
(apparently) other consumers of mountd.
