I think I get where [my] problem is:

$ ~/pkgsrc-current/pkgtools/rc.subr $ cat PLIST
@comment $NetBSD: PLIST,v 1.4 2008/06/04 13:34:46 sketch Exp $
etc/rc.conf.example
etc/rc.subr
${RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR}/DAEMON
${RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR}/LOGIN
${RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR}/NETWORKING
${RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR}/SERVERS
@unexec ${RMDIR} %D/${RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR} 2> /dev/null || ${TRUE}


Look at the first two lines. They are unaffected by
${RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR}. The script wants to write to
"etc/rc.conf.example", but where is it?

And by the way, the email <sbd%NetBSD.org@localhost> bounces on me.
