I am really sorry for breaking it again. My intention was to merge only changes of set_rcvar* on a request, but I mistakenly included the line you fixed after I committed the original change. It is totally my fault. Sorry. I think I will add regression tests for checking rc.d functionality before merging other changes I made on -HEAD. The rc.d scripts are used in various ways now and there are some ambiguous definitions and inconsistency such as a way to set the default value to a variable, naming conventions, and so on, so for that we may need to define what are correct/acceptable ones. Anyway, I start trying to do so and this should help to prevent further inappropriate changes (in terms of whether the existing functionality is broken or not) from being added. -- Hiroki
