Would it be possible to make /etc/rc read:

files=`rcorder -s nostart /etc/rc.d/* /usr/pkg/etc/rc.d/* /usr/local/etc/rc.d/*`

instead of:

files=`rcorder -s nostart /etc/rc.d/*`

...so we can use lovely rcorder magic goodness in non-core startup
scripts?

Eg, I run xfstt, and it needs to be started before xdm. I've manually
hacked this state of affairs by creating my own script in /etc/rc.d
