I reported it because I believe that disable should take precedence from
my reading of the man-page. Furthermore making disable overrule enable
is the most secure thing to do if there is any ambiguity about whether a
service should be enabled or disabled in the configuration file.

If you have read the entire man-page and determined that my
understanding is wrong, please feel free to close the bug. I have no
need to argue further about a 5 year old bug-report that no one has
looked at in 4 years, and which exists in a piece of unloved legacy
software.
