I'd prefer to put an rc.d-style script in ${PREFIX}/etc/rc.d, and in
the ${MESSAGE}, suggest to the user to copy that script to /etc/rc.d
and activate it by setting the appropriate variable in /etc/rc.conf.
I've got a handful written already, but I've been waiting for some
kind of consensus to materialize before committing them.
