I was looking at bin/1262 ([non-critical/medium]: screenblank isn't started.)
and was was wondering if we might want to have /etc/rc call 
machine-dependent scripts such as rc.sparc or rc.sun3 or rc.hp300 or 
whatever to deal with stuff that's somewhat machine-dependent.  I was 
thinking something like this:

# Run machine-dependent startup sequence
machtype=`sysctl -n hw.machine`
if [ -f /etc/rc.${machtype} ]; then
	. /etc/rc.${machtype}
fi

Comments?  Am I opening a can of worms I don't want to open?  :-)
