In *theory*, the SXX* and KXX* scripts are executed in the order they 
would appear in 'ls' output.  So, they *should* be exec'ed in 
numerical order first, then, alphabetical order.  Again, in *theory*
S26ypxfrd would be started *after* S26ypserv, since 'x' comes after 
's'.

(Like I've said before, I gotta find this place called "theory", 
everything seems to "just work" there! :)
