This is interesting. Having beastie_disable set to YES on 
defaults/loader.conf would let us change loader.4th so that everyone 
could activate the beastie menu just by having beastie_disable set to NO 
on loader.conf.

Though I'd rather invert he logic and transfer it to start instead of 
leaving it on beastie, but... <shrug>
