>Description:

I installed samba-2.0.5a from pkgsrc. This puts it's lock directory
into /var/run/samba.

On reboot /etc/rc removes this directory, so samba does not work.

Since the unconditional removing of files under /var/run relatively 
late in the boot process causes othere grieves too (local sockets created
by deamons run in netstart.local are removed) I suggest removing this
brutal rm -rf and replacing it with some find magic to explicitly check
for directories and files younger than uptime.
