I presume there is a "Beware of feet!" sign nearby? :-)

Seriously, we use this at yahoo in a massively replicated environment where
we can recover anything that gets lost or it doesn't matter if it does (ie:
it is a cache of some sort).

I think it is good to have this in the base system, because I have seen
some pretty bad messups where people have tried to add this in themselves.
Having it here should reduce the opportunity for screwups when people edit
/etc/rc manually.

Cheers,
-Peter
