So you think that if I install a syslog from ports that's started via
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/syslogd.sh, "syslog_enable=NO" in /etc/rc.conf
should disable it? For that matter, if I set ipfilter_enable="YES" and
firewall_enable="NO", should the system enable ipfilter or not, as
there are two contradictory things.

Not enabling something is *not* the same thing as disabling it.
