The /etc/defaults/rc.pkg.conf would be modified by installation scripts,
I guess. That is, when a package that needs some rc.d script is installed,
it will modify the rc.pkg.conf defaults to add its own list of variables.
If any of them is already found, just overwrite them to match the new
needs. /etc/rc.conf.d/* should be left for the user...
