This change seems to break many /etc/rc* (and indirectly) *.mk stuff
of a regular NetBSD system. I noticed that first during
/etc/rc.d/network start, when some ifconfig.XXX were no longer set up.

Also /usr/sbin/postinstall check now produces some 'additional'
output.

Just reverting this change seems to fix it.

Markus.
