Hi Ingo

In the "Base system daemon configuration variables" section, in the
last paragraph this is incorrect.

... including a string containing only a single blank character, ...

Looking at the _rc_parse_conf() code in rc.subr says, that any leading
and trailing blanks on the value side of key=value get stripped away.

And maybe it's worth a note that in case of multiple lines with the same
key, only the last is used.

Besides that OK rpe@
