No, that's not a good idea at all.

It _must_ default to wherever the target platform puts its startup
scripts (assuming the target platform uses a compatible type of script)

E.g. on NetBSD it _MUST_ be /etc/rc.d and perhaps on Solaris it should
be /etc/init.d

I.e. RCD_SCRIPTS_DIR should probably be set in the mk/defs.${OPSYS}.mk files.
